SP9326: 21/08/11 - Pyralid trio

After a fine day, the temperature dropped to 9 Celsius, with light airs.

A quiet night, the trap was unattended throughout, and not checked until well after day-break. Three members of the Pyraustinae were represented, Udea lutealis, Pyrausta purpuralis and a rather brown Pyrausta aurata.
