Midsummer Moths

Here’s a few more moths from the other night: my first Riband Waves of the season and this nicely green Green Pug. There are more micros now too, including my first grass moths and these two fruit tree species: Bramble Shoot Moth and Codling Moth - the former as you might guess eats bramble leaves, while the larvae of the latter grow inside the cores of apples and other hard fruit like quinces & pears.

#132 Riband Wave (Idaea aversata)

#782 Green Pug (Pasiphila rectangulata)

#609 Bramble Shoot Moth (Notocelia uddmanniana)

#633 Codling Moth (Cydia pomonella)
