Last night I trapped 8 species which is a record in the Rob S NNR. However my ability to identify them has decreased markedly (unless these are not macro moths). So chaps and chapesses what are these three please? I do hope that No 3 is not another Dun Bar (I don't think it is, looks more like an Uncertain to me)

Bloody hell I need to open my eyes a bit! The Flame Carpet in the book is a bit orangey so I discounted that but you are spot on now I look at it. The others well should have tried harder with the Marbled Beauty.
Brilliant thanks, I think I am up to 50 now.
