Another autumnal moth 28.10.11
Another new moth found in the trap this morning: The Sprawler moth is a typically common autumn moth in Hertfordshire. Very little else found, with crane flies filling the trap, along with several wood lice and a slug. A November moth was also discovered, one of 3 possible species, only identifiable by dissection of the genitalia. Shall pass on to an expert for this procedure. Note: previously recorded winter moth is in fact one fo these 3 species.
