Evening sweep

A very productive early evening walk with the net yesterday, the highlights were...
Micropterix tunbergella


Gracillaria syringella

Incurvaria masculella Also lots of larval webs of Yponomeuta cagnagella and feeding signs of Y. plumbella and various larval spinnings on a range of plants.

Small but perfectly formed

Whilst micros at the trap remain few and far between, there seem to be plenty to be had from a bit if daytime searching. These three diminutive beauties have really helped to brighten things up.

 
 Glyphipterix simpliciella

 
Incurvaria masculella

 
Cameraria ohridella, there are hundreds of these around just about every Horse Chestnut tree I look at right now.
