Looks like it might be Symphyta rather than Lepidoptera...

Cheers Paul Saved me the embarrassment of sending this off to UK Moths....that would have been a big disappointment. Might have to repay the favour....someday  Regards Roger |

Mind you, I am not certain.

I disagree Paul, it's a noctuid caterpillar, something like Caradrina/Hoplodrina. |

Hi Dima I've had a trawl through UK Moths and the closest I can find is The Campion. Don't know if this is right or not, it hasn't been recorded up here previously. I've e-mailed it to UK Moths and am waiting a reply. Paul, what can I say, that hasn't been said before ? Regards Roger http://ukmoths.or...hp?id=3269 Edited by Roger Thomason on 03-11-2009 09:51 |
