Euspilapteryx auroguttella and Fomoria septembrella mines on St. John's-wort in my garden today. I only sowed the seeds earlier this year! Possibly only the 4th VC 61 record of E. auroguttella? Dark Spectacle was new for the garden recently. #teammoth Charles Fletcher Butterfly Conservation Yorkshire

An Iron Prominent larva wandering along the edge of a raised bed by my moth trap this morning. Presumably fell or descended from a nearby birch. #teammoth Charles Fletcher Butterfly Conservation Yorkshire

Lots of Gypsonoma oppressana mines on black poplar at work today. Also a couple of Lyonetia clerkella mines on pear. It's extremely abundant this year, but I think this is the first time I've found it on pear. #teammoth Charles Fletcher Butterfly Conservation Yorkshire

Hi @vc28wildlife, Andy Banthorpe & David Shenton, any thoughts on these Coleophora cases on sea purslane please? I believe that some species can't be distinguished from their cases, but some can? Some are clearly trivalved, but some aren't. Thanks! #teammoth Charles Fletcher

A few moth highlights from the last week: Palpita vitrealis and Exapate congelatella (both new for the garden, VC 61), a Caloptilia honoratella mine on sycamore, and a Coleophora lusciniaepennella larval case on grey willow. #teammoth Charles Fletcher Migrant Lepidoptera Butterfly Conservation Yorkshire

A few recent VC 61 #leafmines: Stigmella viscerella (elm, 6th record?), S. betulicola (birch, 3rd record?), S. assimilella (aspen, 5th record?), Coleophora potentillae (bramble, 3rd record). No migrants in my garden though. #teammoth Charles Fletcher Butterfly Conservation Yorkshire

I'm assuming this is just an aberrant Silver Y, rather than an aberrant Beautiful Golden Y or something more exciting, but thought I'd best check! Any thoughts please Charles Fletcher Migrant Lepidoptera dave grundy๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ˜ท? VC 61 last night. Thanks!

I got caught in the stampede and ended up creating an account in the other place. Layout is very similar to here and seems pretty straightforward to find people. See some of you there! #teammoth #MothsMatter
