Any idea what this would have hatched into? I dug it up in the summer (June) photographed it and reburied. It was fairly big - 2cm approx.
Many thanks. Jane   |

Hi Jane,
My guess would be a moth's, and the size suggests a Noctuidae member...
Take care, Jason  |

My guess would be an Angleshades moth.

Thanks Lance. We do get a lot of Angleshades in the garden... so it's a distinct possiblity. | | |
