7th
Sept 2023 Commins Coch (PRW)
This is only the third record for
Montgomeryshire and the first in the west of the county, the previous
two records coming from the east of the county. Another one turned at
the same site the following night (a different moth), which perhaps
suggests a small breeding colony, rather than an individual 'wanderer',
only time will tell as regards this.
|

Sept 2023 Llandyssil (MEG)
NCR, recorded in the east of the county. This species seems to be
spreading more north and west across the UK, further records are likely
