AGeometrid sp. that was caught in a spider's web, deep in the undergrowth. I scratched myself badly trying to resuce him, and he flew away before I could manage to get a decent shot. That's the thanks I get :)
So, this is all I have, though the pattern seems unique.

Fairly large moth attracted to a moth trap at night. Like the previous post (40) this species moved quickly and also vibrated its wings. This one, however, disappeared before it settled and left me with a blurred image, though probably good enough for ID. Same genus, I believe, as the previous post.

Fairly large and active moth attracted to a moth trap at night.
For periods it would vibrate its wings. Hence the blur, but at least you can see the colours of the abdomen.
