Foxglove Pug,Brown Rustic, Mottled Rustic and I think probably a Rustic Shoulder-knot (there seem to be just a glimpse of the dark mark at the base of the wing peeping out from the furry thorax)
Is the upper of the three noctuids not just another Mottled Rustic as Mark thought? Seems to have the same markings and lacks the white costal markings that usually stand out on Brown Rustic. Do you have any other photos of it Mark? Best wishes, Marc
Andy, isn't the second one a Brown Rustic?

ReplyDeleteSorry this is the only photo. I think this one will have to stay as uncertain.
