A Blog for moth recorders in Bucks, Berks and Oxon
Hi Mark, yes to Dark Arches. I think your second one is Dusky Brocade which is quite a variable moth. The size fits and it has the 'W' marking in the outer cross-line which rules out some of the other contenders at this time of year.
thanks Dave, Dusky Brocade was one of the possibles I looked at but I couldn't find an exact image match.
Hi Mark,Have a look at "Dusky Brocade on the Norfolk moths web site. Think it's a dead ringer!Alan
