I had this probable Ni Moth in my Aylesbury garden trap this morning - I've seen many a Silver Y, but this looked different to my eye, and has the broken y shape. If anyone can confirm then it would be a first for me. Thanks, from Dave Maunder
Looks like a good contender, but I'm not certain, so best to keep for confirmation. Excellent record if it is Ni and second Bucks record for the year (earlier posting).
For me that's a very fresh-looking Ni Moth, Dave - very well done! Please keep it for Martin, though. Our supply of migrant moths seems to have been added to just recently ... I wonder who will be first locally to get a Bedstraw Hawk-moth?!

ReplyDeletePost it off to me Dave, to save Martin handing it over later.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for the comments - i have retained it for possible eggs as it's female, then will send it on to Peter.
