A friend near Winslow VC24 has sent my this picture from a willow in her garden. Can I take it this is a Willow Ermine larval web?
Not had much joy with mothing this year hence a lack of reports on here, but I did have a garden first Dark Umber on Friday and this morning a Cedestis gysseleniella but that was just out of region in Chipperfield, VC20 so you probably don't want to know that.

It certainly looks likely, Dave, but it would be good to see an image of the larvae (or possibly their cocoons by now) which should be inside the web.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I have asked for a photo of the larvae if poss. I'll add cocoons to the request. Or Ill have to drive up there and do it myself!
