Near Huétor Tajar, Granada Province, Spain.

Moth Trapping.

Earias albovenosana.






The nights are getting warmer and the Moths more numerous but still not large numers, this may partly be due to me just using the 15W actinic trap and not the 125MV.
5626 (1416) Pyralis lienigialis.
I still managed a few new species included 5626 (1416) Pyralis lienigialis, 8490 (1818) Eupthecia irriguata ssp. eriguata (Marbled Pug) and 10457 Earias albovenosana.
