micro?

common wainscot?


another common wainscot?


yellow underwing??

[Adam Cheeseman]

First one looks like an Agonopterix sp.
3 could be a Rush Veneer.
6 is a Rusty-dot Pearl
The two wainscots do look like Common.
The last is a Broad-bordered Yellow Underwing.

Cheers,

Adam

First is a Rusty Dot Pearl Udea ferrugalis, and a rather fine specimen too.

I don't think the last is a YU I can just make out 3 white/pale patches on the apical end of the costa: present in loads of Noctuids, but not LYU etc.

Caught out again: at least now I know that the BBYU has three white specks on the costa too! My excuse was I was thinking of the others.

Also thought 3 looked like a Rush Veneer.

Just checked and 3 is definitely a Rush Veneer.
