A troublesome little plume

Among the catch on 10th August was a small pale plume moth.  It keyed out fairly straightforwardly as far as either Citron Plume Euleioptilus carphodactyla or Hemp-agrimony Plume Adaina microdactyla and given its pale lemon-yellow colouration I anticipated it would prove to be carphodactyla. Adaina microdactyla colour is variable - "usually pale ochreous, sometimes pale brown, rarely yellow or light grey" compared to "pale lemon-yellow" for Euleioptilus carphodactyla (from Colin Hart's British Plume Moths).  Pale lemon-yellow described this well (especially when looking under the microscope), but as microdactyla can rarely be yellow it warranted further work on the keys.  The underside of the forewing was dark brown at the base, becoming paler towards the cleft - that matched carphodactyla and was wrong for microdactyla which should be more uniformly dark.  However there was no sign of the contrast between the costal fringe of the first lobe and the inner fringe, which should be present on carphodactyla (but not microdactyla) - but then again the fringe was pretty much worn away at the tip, so that could be why.

I dissected it fully expecting to confirm it as Citron Plume Euleioptilus carphodactyla but had some trouble.  Apparently I hadn't left it in the acid long enough as it as difficult to see all I needed to and I damaged it in the process.  Nevertheless the large coiled ductus seminalis was plain to see and there was no sign of any forked tips to the apophyses anteriores, which won't mean a thing to you if you don't do dissections, but clearly identifies it as Hemp-agrimony Plume Adaina microdactyla rather than Euleioptilus carphodactyla if you do!  I suppose in hindsight it was pretty small for carphodactyla, but an interesting learning experience.

Next best was a White-speckled Clothes Moth Nemapogon wolffiella.  In 2011-13 I recorded the second, third, fourth and fifth county records of this nationally scarce species, though only one of five records between then and now.  This is a new location, so nice to connect with another one here.

A Grey-streaked Smudge Plutella porrectella was only my second ever, but unfortunately made its escape before I could get a photo.  New macros for the year were Oak Hook-tip and White-spotted Pug.

Other goodies in the moth trap included this fine Campyloneura virgula, a new species of bug for me.

Campyloneura virgula, North Elmham, 10th August


I'm pretty sure I've seen this species of Mayfly before though I can't find any I've identified as such, so perhaps not.  I think it's Ephemera vulgata*.  *Edit 2017: no it wasn't - it was Green Drake Ephemera danica.

Having Kittens

Not one but 2 Sallow Kittens were among the catch on 9th August.

Leaf-miners and Narrow-winged Pug

New for the year for home on 8th August were Beech Midget Phyllonorycter maestingella, Horse Chestnut Leaf-miner Cameraria ohridella and Narrow-winged Pug, the latter a species I've only ever encountered on heather heathland before, albeit sometimes then in good numbers.

Another species that sounds like it should be a heathland species from its common name is, in fact, not, but still one I don't see often: Heath Marble Endothenia ericetana.

Mediocrity

A wander round Syderstone Common at lunchtime on 7th August turned up a few moths and butterflies, though nothing extraordinary.  Holly Blue was the best of the butterflies; the moths were 4 Barred Grass-veneers Agriphila inquinatella, 10 Six-spot Burnets, Common Carpet and Yellow Shell.

That night wasn't the best but two common macros were new for the year: Orange Swift and Six-striped Rustic.

Two micro ticks and a striking Figwort Sawfly larva

After the previous day's poor showing, 6th August was another great night.  Although 290 moths of 89 species was some way short of the best this summer they included two lifers, and any night with two ticks has to be a good night.  Both were pine-feeders: Pine Leaf-mining Moth Clavigesta purdeyi and New Pine Knot-horn Dioryctria sylvestrella, neither enormously rare but still good to get under the belt.  I was surprised how distinctive the latter was - not only very strikingly marked but also massive - quite a different beast from other Dioryctria that I've seen before.

Nothing else was new for the year but there were some notable moths among the micros including Grey Ermine Yponomeuta sedella, Base-lined Grey Scoparia basistrigalis and Chalk Knot-horn Phycitodes maritima.

Dark Umber, Fen Wainscot and Small Rufous were the best macros, the rest being Small Blood-vein, 3 Single-dotted Waves, 5 Riband Waves, 5 Red Twin-spot Carpets, Dark-barred Twin-spot Carpet, Shaded Broad-bar, 2 Common Carpets, Yellow Shell, Slender Pug, Scorched Carpet, 2 Canary-shouldered Thorns, 5 Willow Beauties, Pebble Prominent, Coxcomb Prominent, Buff-tip, 6 Yellow-tails, 5 Rosy Footmen, 10 Dingy Footmen, 11 Scarce Footmen, 8 Common Footmen, Buff Ermine, 5 Ruby Tigers, Shuttle-shaped Dart, Flame Shoulder, 6 Large Yellow Underwings, Lesser Yellow Underwing, 12 Lesser Broad-bordered Yellow Underwings, 2 Double Square-spots, Dot Moth, Lychnis, Smoky Wainscot, Straw Underwing, Dun-bar, Dark Arches, Cloaked Minor, 2 Common Rustics, Lesser Common Rustic, 4 Dusky Sallows, Flounced Rustic, 3 Ear Moths, 7 Uncertains, Rustic, 3 Nut-tree Tussocks, Straw Dot, Snout and Fan-foot.

This rather striking caterpillar was found on the Buddleia.  If I'm not mistaken it's a Figwort Sawfly, a species that's supposed to feed on Figwort, as its name suggests.  I'm not sure if that's meant to be Figwort in the strict sense or anything in the Figwort family, but the leafmines website doesn't give this species among those that feed on Buddleia.  With that being in the Figwort family though, I suspect it's appearance on the Buddeia was not coincidental.

Hornet

I get a few Hornets in the moth trap.  So far they've not been a serious problem, though they do predate the odd moth now and then.  If they remain docile enough not to be a threat (to me) they're quite attractive in a strange sort of way...

Hornet, North Elmham, 5th August


5th August was a pretty poor night by recent standards - just 110 moths of 40 species and none of them very remarkable: Small Clover Case-bearer Coleophora alcyonipennella, Burdock Neb Metzneria lappella, Hook-marked Straw Moth Agapeta hamana, Garden Rose Tortrix Acleris variegana, Barred Marble Celypha striana, 3 Garden Grass-veneers Chrysoteuchia culmella, 24 Pearl Veneers Agriphila straminella, 27 Common Grass-veneers Agriphila tristella, Small Grey Eudonia mercurella, Beautiful China-mark Nymphula stagnata, Garden Pebble Evergestis forficalis, 3 Mother of Pearls Pleuroptya ruralis, Chinese Character, Large Emerald, Small Fan-footed Wave, Single-dotted Wave, 5 Riband Waves, Red Twin-spot Carpet, Lime-speck Pug, Purple Thorn, Scalloped Oak, Pebble Prominent, Pale Prominent, Buff-tip, 3 Yellow-tails, 3 Dingy Footmen, Scarce Footman, 3 Common Footmen, Ruby Tiger, 3 Large Yellow Underwings, Lesser Yellow Underwing, Lesser Broad-bordered Yellow Underwing, Nutmeg, Clay, 2 Straw Underwings, Ear Moth, 4 Uncertains, 2 Nut-tree Tussocks, Straw Dot and Snout.
