Light-trapping details and summaries
Idle Valley NR results August-September 2019
 
All light-trapping carried out with 2x 125W Robinson MV lights and/or a single 6W Heath Actinic trap
Species listed in dark grey refer to migrants
 
Date: August 1st 2019
Site: Idle Valley NR (Bellmoor Lake)
Recorders: Phil Cadman, Ian Hunt and Melanie Newman
Weather conditions: Overcast and very mild. No wind
Trapping time: 21:30h - 02:00h
Temperature: 19°C - 16°C
Additional notes: An eventful and in the end, very surprising moth trapping session made up of approximately 666 moths of some 92 species.  It was a total that ultimately went on to provide three new moths for the Idle Valley NR, with two of these new to Nottinghamshire.

The moths new to Nottinghamshire were Kent Black Arches Meganola albula and the colourful (and equally rare) Oncocerus semirubella, whilst Bactra furferana proved to be new to the IVNR.

In addition, there were a number of other notable species, that included fourth reserve records of Epinotia nisella and Lobesia abscisana, and only the second reserve records of Caloptilia robustella and Eucosma obumbratana.

Weather conditions: Clear and breezy, but remaining mild.
