Near Huétor Tajar, Granada Province, Spain.

Moth Records for the 7th June 2012.
15W Actinic on the terrace.
Any corrections, PLEASE send me a comment on the post, thanks.

9454 Hoplodrina ambigua (Vine's Rustic).
Again I ran the 15 Watt Actinic trap in the garden and caught a reasonable mix, most were the usual suspects but a couple were new but are away (the photo's not the Moths) with Penny Hale for her to cast her expert eye over.
10015 Mythimna vitellina (The Delicate).
Other more interesting species were 3498 Mirificarma eburnella, 8211 Rhodometra sacraria (The Vestal) this was the first for a while, 9140 Eublemma ostrina (Purple Marbled) usually quite common but again the first for some time and singles of 9454 Hoplodrina ambigua (Vine's Rustic) and 10015 Mythimna vitellina (The Delicate).
7961 Aplasta ononaria (The Rest Harrow).
Penny also confirmed a couple of new species this week, they were 4559 Archips xylosteana (Variegated Golden Tortrix), the one I had not been able to do was 7961 Aplasta ononaria (The Rest Harrow) and another one she confirmed was 10457 Earias albovenosana.
