Recording moths regularly here in East Cambridgeshire, in my garden and in the local area. Occasionally venturing to Suffolk, Norfolk and Hertfordshire.

18.10.2025 19:02 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Indeed it is. Other characters are wrong for Dark that's for sure.

11.10.2025 16:08 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0That is 100% Lunar Yellow Underwing. I am in a a bit of a Hotspot for this species in my garden and am still getting them now. It helps to see the species regularly to aid helping others. The little black mark at the base of the leading edge is diagnostic π
11.10.2025 16:06 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Not Red-headed Chestnut, that's a bigger moth and has different markings along the sub-terminal line, and in the kidney marks.
11.10.2025 16:02 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0It's a lovely form of Chestnut, not Dark Chestnut.
11.10.2025 16:00 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Ade, this is Eudonia angustea. A little late for incorrectly suggested ambigualis, but it's not out of the question. We have a few early September records.

13.09.2025 08:17 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Tortrix is Cydia nigricana, the Pea Moth.
07.09.2025 16:39 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0That's Evergestis extimalis.

16.08.2025 08:17 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0aspersana is fine for that. Confusion species is shepherdana with the hooked wingtips.
16.08.2025 08:16 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Likely a Large Ear given the length of it's wings in comparison with it's head.
16.08.2025 08:15 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0It's a Phyllonorycter comparella.

08.08.2025 21:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Nice moth. This is Notocelia incarnatana, not Epiblema costipunctana. Lovely pink flush to the white areas. A very uncommon moth.
