Description: Well it was BioBlitz day and so we set about trying our luck for the Moths. It did look set to be a perfect evening with warm temperatures and increasing cloud cover, then that just vanished and the temperature plummeted. That said we got a fair return, and am still waiting for the list from the MV traps. My list is from using a 22w Actinic in a wash basket which only ran until about 12am, but still provided a few good species, some of which need to be confirmed yet. Easily my best moth was a single Dark Umber.
