Any corrections, PLEASE send me a comment on the post, thanks.
 
5889 Eurhodope cruentella.
A much quieter trap than expected after mailing with Penny Hale down at Casares about the big catches she has been having.
6860 Hyles livornica (Striped Hawk-moth).
I did get a few new species but so far I have only confirmed a single identification which was the brightly coloured 5889 Eurhodope cruentella.
9298 Metopoceras felicina.
Other species included 1525 Plutella xylostella (Diamond backed Moth), 6860 Hyles livornica (Striped Hawk-moth), 8828 Raphia hybris, a couple of 9056 Autographa gamma (Silver Y), 9097 Emmelia trabealis (Spotted Sulphur), 9100 Acontia lucida (Pale Shoulder) and only the second 9298 Metopoceras felicina. Hopefully I will sort out a few of the other and the garden list will grow some more.
8828 Raphia hybris.
