17th July 2012: Gade Springs Watercress Beds, Hemel Hempstead, HertsI decided to take an hour long drive to these site right across to the est side of Hertfordshire. I was given permission to run traps from the mains electricity point to see what the catch would yield.A fellow Herts moth group member, Roger Prue decided to join me in our quest for some new records for this superb site that runs alongside the Grand Union Canal.3 Traps were set up and switched on at 9.30pm and run until 1am, a combination of 125w MV, 160w MBT and 22w/26w Compact fluorescent combo were used and spaced 50m apart from each other.The conditions were perfect and soon many moths were seen flying, some promptly netted before dusk. The list featured well over 100 species of moths in total and personal highlights for me were 2 new Macro Moth species, Wormwood Pug and Plain Golden-Y.Other good records included Barred Red, Platyptilia ochrodactyla and Recurvaria leucatella.Numbers weren't counted so just species are represented.Macro MothsWormwood Pug [NEW!]Plain Golden-Y [NEW!]Dotted Fan-foot Silver-YBarred RedMinor sp.Light ArchesHeart & ClubNut-tree TussockFan-footSmall EmeraldBurnished BrassDingy ShearsGarden CarpetV-PugJuly HighflyerCommon FootmanCommon RusticLesser Common Rustic (Gen det to be done)Double-striped PugMottled BeautyScarce FootmanLight EmeraldGreen PugBuff ErmineRiband WaveRed Twin-spot CarpetBrimstoneLarge Yellow UnderwingElephant Hawk-mothBright-line Brown-eyeWillow BeautyLesser Broad-bordered Yellow UnderwingCommon CarpetClouded SilverDot MothFlameHeart & DartFlame ShoulderDun-barMottled RusticShaded Broad-barDouble Square-spotBuff ArchesScorched CarpetRound-winged MuslinUncertainLeopard MothDouble LobedDark ArchesLesser Yellow UnderwingFernDrinkerCommon WaveCommon White WaveDingy FootmanDwarf Cream WaveCommon WainscotSmoky WainscotSmall Fan-footed WaveSnoutSingle-dotted WaveYellow ShellMicro MothsPlatyptilia ochrodactyla [NEW!]Pammene fasciana [NEW!]Argresthia sp.Phalonidia manniana Recurvaria leucatellaAethes rubiganaPhlyctaenia coronataElachista maculicerusellaBatia unitellaEucosma canaPhycitodes sp.Coleophora sp.Cnephasia sp.
