Copper Underwing & Centre-barred Sallow
Here are two new moths caught over the weekend, both species found only in the late summer/early Autumn. The Copper Underwing (Amphipyra pyramidea) and very similar Svenssons Copper Underwing (Amphipyra berbera) are distinguishable by the marking on the hind wing, but as I didn’t check it this one could be either - I’ll know for next time. Centre-barred Sallow (Atethmia centrago) is found with Ash trees, in one generation in August-September.
