Moth Trapping
 |
| Heliothis armigera (Scarce Bordered Straw). |
Last night I made the decision to run the 125w MV lamp, what a mistake. I got up to find the trap, nearby plants and all the walls were swamped in small black beetles, literally 10s of thousands had been attracted in along with a few moths.
 |
| Clostera pigra (Small Chocolate-tip). |
New species or first time identified moths included
Heliothis armigera (Scarce Bordered Straw) x2 and a single
Clostera pigra (Small Chocolate-tip).
 |
| Coscinia chrysocephala. |
