Ear moth sp...CF may well Gen det these for you ....all Calderdale records so far have been Large Ear moths...?? I agree the red Neglected Rustics are a fine moth..even if they have a feel of autumn about them...
Cheers Andy,, I might do one Ear Moth,, I'm definitely not going to be dissecting every moth!
Yes Neglected Rustic absolutely beautiful...
It would be good to confirm that Large is the common species throughout Calderdale.. you never know ..!!
If/when I get another I might send it off
