Large Nutmeg or similar

 I'm struggling with these 2 from Hook Norton Railway Cutting BBOWT reserve last night.

  1. Hello Andy,
    I'd go along with Large Nutmeg for the first, but I'd suggest the second is Rustic Shoulder-knot even though the "shoulder knots" aren't obvious.

    1. Thank you. That makes sense. We decided to put the 20w actinic trap out despite the torrential rain and actually had quite a good catch including 5 Light Brocade which I have not had in the garden. Aso a Blackneck caterpillar was found while we were searching around the trap for adult moths.
