| |  [ID]Yellow Underwing sp.
Hi WAB'ers,
I found this moth in the kitchen last night, I assume it's a yellow underwing.   For confirmation, which one is it please?
BTW It is now hiding from the camera ( it's turned camera shy  ) in a strip-light and I'm working on putting it outside...
Take care,
Jason |

Dan, you are such a Tart!!
It IS a Large yellow underwing and they are very varyable but ALWAYS have the 2 terminal dots, 1 on each wing.
Hope this helps.
