Insects


White-point - an immigrant species and my first this year. Other immigrants in the trap this morning were singles of Silver Y and Rush Veneer plus 4 Rusty Dot Pearl


Tawny-barred Angle - the first I've trapped here in Exmouth. Other species in the trap last night included Ruby Tiger, Jersey Tiger, Cypress Pug, Light Emerald, Buff Ermine and Poplar Hawkmoth.


Golden-ringed Dragonfly - Maer Valley

 
I'm pretty sure this is Common Darter - male above, female below and 'teneral' bottom? Would appreciate confirmation or otherwise. Good numbers seen in Maer Valley.
