Thanks for posting these Andy, I quite like these old collections, I admire the skill needed to set the moths and they do look quite spectacular in the flesh rather than two dimensional photos on a computer screen - maybe they just bring out the collector's instinct in me.
Be interesting to see a drawer full of Nepticulids - you could fit them all in a drawer a couple of inches across.
I guess this is from Collinson's cabinet, in the care of a member of the Halifax Scientific Society, since we were made homeless as far as our library and artefacts are concerned. A small room houses some of our books in the New Library, and are viewable on the third Saturday of the month. Collinson wrote the Butterflies and Moths of the Halifax Parish.
Essex Skipper. . . On another subject, Brian Cain, our former Recorder at the HSS, forwarded some hand-written reports at the AGM last Tuesday, one of which is reproduced over on the Calderdale-wildlife.blogspot after being typed by another member. It is his list from a survey at Cromwell Bottom in July 2018, when he found Essex Skipper and July Belle.
Charlie if you fancy going to see it , i can arrange a viewing....its fantastic..or anyone else .....
Thanks Andy, I did see the collection a few years back at a HSS meeting.
