Some Moths during April

 This April has been rather dry, with some reasonably mild night-time temperatures and I have managed to put the moth-trap out on numerous occasions. 

Although moth numbers have continued to be quite low, the variety of species has started to increase and here are a few images of moths that have been attracted to the trap during April.

Brindled Beauty (Lycia hirtaria) (male)

Pale Tussock (Calliteara pudibunda) (male)

Muslin Moth (Diaphora mendica) (male)

Brimstone Moth (Opisthograptis luteolata)

White-spotted Pug (Eupithecia tripunctaria)

Powdered Quaker (Orthosia gracilis)

Nut-tree Tussock (Colocasia coryli)

Frosted Green (Polyploca ridens)

Pale Pinion (Lithophane hepatica)

Least Black Arches (Nola confusalis)
