Moth Trapping down on the farm part 3 - Rarities abound! My third session on the farm was last Thursday, and I decided to run 4 traps, 2 on each site (he North and South). The plan was to stay with the traps until around 1am then leave them running until 4.30am whilst I got a bit of kip. The day had been a really warm and muggy one with highs of 24 degrees but threats of rain continued, but luckily it wasn't too bad overnight and the main deluge came just at dawn whilst going through the traps..not ideal I can tell you! The main problem wasn't the precipitation threat but the wind! A constant 15mph with gusts of around 20mph did not do the night any favours but it was worth seeing how things fared despite the breezy conditions. Overall it went ok, with numbers slightly down on what I would expect, but a healthy amount of species were there to be recorded. Some really local and rare moths made it all worthwhile. For starter's I recorded a joint County 2nd Anarsia lineatella, the Peach Twig-borer moth. Graeme Smith not 6 miles away as the crow flies recorded one on the same night in his garden in Bishop's Stortford! Anarsia lineatella is a fairly recent colonist from warmer shores, these could be spreading from their stronghold in Essex or may be primary immigrants. Care should be taken though as there is another Gelechid that looks very similar, Gelechia senticetella. Other moths of note were my first Herts record of Cream-bordered Green-pea a Ruddy Carpet and Waved Black. There were also stunning forms of Cloaked Minor and Riband Wave. Two moths are still outstanding for identification. The list stands at 163 species in total minus the two unidentified species.

Summary[
edit] Description: Canvey Wick by day Decided to do some day netting for anything I could find. The weather was warm and partly sunny with a stiff SW breeze which made it difficult in some areas to net the disturbed moths. I managed a very pleasing list of moths and Butterflies. Butterfly highlights included several sightings of Marbled White, Essex Skipper and Small Heath. Moth highlights included new moths for me Aethes tesserana, Grapholita compositella and Pammene aurana. My only annoying moment was when I faffed and missed a Red-tipped Clearwing! still it's a new one for me, just without a photo.
