I well remember ... Steve, they're a superb moth. I well remember Dave Walker passing a potted specimen for the inspection of Ray Turley and myself - 1993-ish (?) It was like we were being given a private viewing of "The Crown Jewels" - such was the rarity of the species at that time. Like your experience in Banstead - I am now able to record this insect on an annual basis, seven individuals being the best single night total, thus far, in our Dumpton garden (Aug 2012) - Dyl<br />P.S. - some of your recent plant stuff is most interesting to a complete Philistine, such as myself !Dylan Wrathallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285181139467170047noreply@blogger.com
