Taking the aggs out, I'm on 1059. And I've only dipped a toe into the realms of leafmines and Coleophora cases, so there's a lot more to seeat home as well as further afield. Not bad for 6 year's recording.

That's a nice array of micros Steve. I've only had 3 of those, most are not found or are rare in my neck of the woods. And gendets certainly increase the overall total. I've still got 25 from July to sort through, then I'll be able to look at my stats for the year

Cheers Dave. Conversely, the work trap was really poor with just a couple of migrants and 20/12 overall. Much poorer than I was expecting.

He's not had any for a few days, but it's not impossible. It's strange that it's so rare in Devon compared to Cornwall

I had an Oegoconia in Plymouth last week. Almost certainly caradjai (the only species I've recorded here), but I will gendet it to confirm.

And uber-fresh too. It just goes to show you really don't know what's going to be under the egg trays!

Yes, that's correct. The Salsovian (Eremohadena chenopodiphaga) potted in my garden on 29th October 2022. Found nectaring, it doesn't come to light very often. It's my profile picture

Amazing! Well done Tim. Your 4th for Britain certainly looks better than my 4th/5th Dichomeris acuminatus earlier this month!
