One clause seemed directly written to me - the President was “not ex- pected to be expert in all the fields covered by the various sections." As most of you will know, unlike past Presidents who have been specialists, I am very much an ordinary member with a general interest in natural history and archaeology, but my membership over many years has widened my knowledge and kept up a spirit of inquiry. With this in mind last May I joined the general meeting exploring the ground around the glass- houses of Wight Salads, somewhere completely new to me.

  • Harper's Island Wetlands Butterflies & Moths (2020)
    Introduction Harper’s Island Wetlands (HIW) nature reserve, situated close to the village of Glounthaune on the north shore of Cork Harbour is well known for its birds, many of which come from all over northern Europe and beyond, but there is a lot more to the wildlife at the HWI nature reserve than birds. One of our goals it to find out as much as we can about all aspects of life, both plant and animal, that live or visit HIW. This is a report on the butterflies and moths of HIW. Butterflies After birds, butterflies are probably the one of the best known flying creatures. While there has been no structured study of them on at HIW, 17 of Ireland’s 33 resident and regular migrant species of Irish butterflies have been recorded. Just this summer we added the Comma butterfly to the island list. A species spreading across Ireland in recent years possibly in response to climate change. Hopefully we can set up regular monitoring of the butterflies at HIW in the next couple of years. Butterfly Species Recorded at Harper’s Island Wetlands up to September 2020. Colias croceus Clouded Yellow Pieris brassicae Large White Pieris rapae Small White Pieris napi Green-veined White Anthocharis cardamines Orange-tip Lycaena phlaeas Small Copper Polyommatus icarus Common Blue Celastrina argiolus Holly Blue Vanessa atalanta Red Admiral Vanessa cardui Painted Lady Aglais io Peacock Aglais urticae Small Tortoiseshell Polygonia c-album Comma Speyeria aglaja Dark-green Fritillary Pararge aegeria Speckled Wood Maniola jurtina Meadow Brown Aphantopus hyperantus Ringlet Moths One group of insects that are rarely seen by visitors to HIW is the moths.

  • NUMBER 13 – August 2010 Wallblings
    Herald Moth, Pamber © Paul Sterry NUMBER 13 – August 2010 Wallblings... Welcome to the 13th Hantsmoths newsletter, delayed more than usual due to my annual foray across the Channel to pastures warmer where the moths are more exotic and therefore covers July and August together. Thanks to Tim for putting the bulk of this missive together in my absence. Please keep the news coming in, either to me directly at mike AT hantsmoths.org.uk, or via the Hantsmoths yahoogroup. Until the next time, Good mothing! Mike --------------- 1 Request for info: Cnephasia pumicana – new to British (and Hampshire) list For those who don’t get the Ent.Rec., the following is lifted directly from Entomologist’s Rec. J. Var. 122 (2010) (authored by JRL & DJLA), announcing a new species to the British list. “Moths of the genus Cnephasia Curtis are notoriously difficult to identify from their external morphology. It is often necessary to make a genitalia preparation to be sure of the identity. Whilst examining such preparations JRL observed a striking difference between two males of this complex. The paper by Chambon & Genestier (1980) illustrated and described these differences and suggested we had two species under the name of pasiuana . C. pumicana had been sunk into the synonymy of C. pasiuana by Razowski (1989), although Karsholt & Razowski (1996) mention that this synonymy was not accepted by Jaroś (1993). It was also included as a distinct species in Novak & Liška (1997), Szabóky et al. (2002) and in Aarvik (2004). It remains listed as a synonym of pasiuana in the popular work by Razowski (2002).

  • Scottish Macro-Moth List, 2015
    Notes on the Scottish Macro-moth List, 2015 This list aims to include every species of macro-moth reliably recorded in Scotland, with an assessment of its Scottish status, as guidance for observers contributing to the National Moth Recording Scheme (NMRS). It updates and amends the previous lists of 2009, 2011, 2012 & 2014. The requirement for inclusion on this checklist is a minimum of one record that is beyond reasonable doubt. Plausible but unproven species are relegated to an appendix, awaiting confirmation or further records. Unlikely species and known errors are omitted altogether, even if published records exist. Note that inclusion in the Scottish Invertebrate Records Index (SIRI) does not imply credibility. At one time or another, virtually every macro-moth on the British list has been reported from Scotland. Many of these claims are almost certainly misidentifications or other errors, including name confusion. However, because the County Moth Recorder (CMR) has the final say, dubious Scottish records for some unlikely species appear in the NMRS dataset. A modern complication involves the unwitting transportation of moths inside the traps of visiting lepidopterists. Then on the first night of their stay they record a species never seen before or afterwards by the local observers. Various such instances are known or suspected, including three for my own vice-county of Banffshire. Surprising species found in visitors’ traps the first time they are used here should always be regarded with caution. Clerical slips – the wrong scientific name scribbled in a notebook – have long caused confusion. An even greater modern problem involves errors when computerising the data.

  • Boughton Heath Allotment Colony: Moths in the Time of Lockdown Last Year I Started Trapping and Photographing Moths at the Colony
    Crambus perlella (Satin Grass-veneer) Boughton Heath Allotment Colony: Moths in the time of lockdown Last year I started trapping and photographing moths at the colony. I’ve continued this year, and because of lockdown I’ve done more here than anywhere else. Most of my records involve moths attracted to a light trap; I try to identify every one, photograph some and release them all unharmed. In all this year at the allotments I’ve caught and identified over 900 individual moths, belonging to 172 different species, bringing my overall total for the allotments to 194 species. This is just a brief summary of this year’s moths. There are more pictures on my Flickr site. If you follow the link, you’ll find my ‘Allotment Moths’ album, with the most recent moths appearing first. (I think the page defaults to ‘large view’ which is ok, but buttons at top right allow for a slideshow view or ‘justified view’, which I think is the best way to see the album as a whole and click through it.) https://www.flickr.com/photos/149980226@N06/albums/72157678669587018 There are moths about in every month of the year, but this year kicked off for me in March, with a handful of species, including these two Quakers. Common Quaker Small Quaker Muslin Moth Poplar Hawk- moth April highlights included Muslin Moth and Poplar Hawk-moth. Things really begin to warm up in May, both weather-wise and in the world of moths. The Green Carpet is still a common species, but what a beauty it is, likewise the Brimstone Moth.

  • MOTHS of EARLHAM CEMETERY
    MOTHS of EARLHAM CEMETERY Compiled by Vanna Bartlett (VB), Jeremy Bartlett (JB), Ian Senior (IS), James Emerson (JE), Gary White (GW), James Cordeaux (JC), Alysia Schuetzle (AS) and Stuart Paston (SP). NMS = recorded by Norfolk Moth Survey. Last updated 21st June 2020. The list includes species recorded in Earlham Cemetery plus records from gardens that back onto the Cemetery and other nearby areas give an indication of the species that will be present in the Cemetery. The list includes: (1) Species actually recorded in the Cemetery, shown in bold. These are mainly from day observations, but on 10th August 2019 we had our first moth trapping event in Earlham Cemetery. Thanks to Ken Saul of Norfolk Moth Survey and Susan Moore of Norwich City Council for arranging this. (2) Species recorded at 12 Helena Road, Norwich (grid reference: TG 215 091) by VB & JB between 1992 and 2013 which definitely or almost certainly came from the Cemetery, which is directly at the back of the garden. More recent records of species caught in a moth trap at 24 Helena Road by GW. (3) Species recorded at 12 Helena Road by VB & JB, which probably came from inside the garden, such as several moth species associated with the garden pond or plants not found in the Cemetery. These are shown in italics. (4) Species recorded in other places near to but not adjoining the Cemetery, such as the West Norwich Hospital on Bowthorpe Road. The location is listed with these species. Shown in red. Most species recorded at 12 Helena Road (2 and 3 above) were trapped using a mercury vapour lamp, a homemade version of a Robinson trap, although a Heath trap was also used occasionally.
