Two new macros to add to the growing garden list, thankfully both were easily identified as I recorded them last year prior to trapping. (Edit: Or at least that's what I thought until the comments! turns out what I thought was Hebrew Character was in fact a Double Square Spot masquerading as one to catch out the newcomer)

Are you sure your Hebrew Character's not a Double Square Spot...?
Alan
Your Hebrew Character is a Double Square-spot
Thanks Dan/Tom so much for thinking I knew one without trawling the net.
Alan its good to check flight times. Hebrew Characters are spring moths, I caught about 700 odd but my last was in mid May. They are much smaller than Double Square Spot too. Hebes have been my most abundant species this year, before the Underwings start that is ;)
