During the period 2-14 September we've had 36 moth species on the balcony and in the trap. Yesterday I had 15 Box Tree Moths. 12 were the common bordered form, 2 were the first dark forms I've had.
Later note: What I thought was a white form of the Box Tree Moth turns out to be a new one for us, an Olive-tree Pearl. My misidentification was corrected by a Corfiat friend, Anne Sordinas, who is extremely knowledgeable about the Lepidoptera in Corfu and does a lot of original research into the life cycles of butterflies there. The UK members of the
Corfu Butterfly Conservation group I belong to was supposed to be going to Corfu in October, but Covid-19 has caused us to postpone our plans.
