Nettle-tap


Following DW's exhortation to check our Nettle-taps, his photograph rang a bell and I found I had photographed, what I think is, Prochoreutis myellana on the 25 July this year. It came to light on the night of 24/25 July.

    Hello Alan,

    That is indeed a Prochoreutis and I think there's just enough visible in your middle image to say that this is indeed P.myllerana and not the rarer P.sehestediana.

    Thanks Dave.

    I've added one more photo in case it adds anything.
