Summary[edit] Description: Macro no.264 for the Garden Well last week wasn't very fruitful on the moths front again. On Sunday night I ran the trap for just a single December Moth albeit a male this time and boy was it tiny! On Thursday night I decided to try again, and within about an hour of the light being on I had a new macro moth for the garden, a fresh Pale Pinion was sitting on the fence adjacent to the trap. Excited by the find I decided to keep running the trap all night in hope for something else, and luckily other things turned up, a stunning Red-green Carpet, two Epiphyas postvittana's and a Plutella xylostella were all I could manage. But for one moth that makes it up to 264 species of macro for the garden since August 2012 it was all worth it. Here is a brief summary of the species recorded in my garden since moving in on August 2012. Macro Moths 2012 = 80 Macros Total Garden list = 264 2013 = 225 Macros 2014 = 231 Macros (30 new this year) Micro Moths 2012 = 54 Micros Total Garden list = 225 2013 = 159 Micros 2014 = 191 Micros (60 new this year).
