Numbers have fallen somewhat over the past two nights but, even so, the ten species found in the trap this morning were more than I can usually expect at this time of year. Amongst them was a single quite heavily-marked Scarce Umber, likely to be the final macro species added to the garden year list for 2018. It proved to be the year's 328th garden macro as things currently stand although I would hope to get past 330 when dissections of a handful of Daggers, Minors and Common Rustics have been completed.
