A couple of noctuids from last night

Approximately three-quarters of last night's catch was accounted for by two noctuid species, with 166 Common Wainscot and 72 Setaceous Hebrew Character, but there were a couple I wasn't entirely certain about. However I'm pretty sure this is a Lunar Underwing




and I think this is Deep-brown Dart, although it's not a very good photo I'm afraid.



Confirmation, (or otherwise!) appreciated as always.

Thanks

  1. Both correct, Phil. If my garden is anything to go by then within a couple of weeks the numbers of Lunar Underwing (in all its colour forms) will have overtaken both Setaceous Hebrew Character and Common Wainscot.
