Another warm night resulted in 23 moths of 16 species. There were 3 new species for the garden:
Goodell's Arches Moth (Orthodes goodelli), Subdued Arches (Lacanobia subjuncta) and Snaky Arches Moth (Lacinipolia anguina). The Subdued Arches was quite a worn specimen so I've added an image that was taken in the Twin Butte area earlier in the year. In fact, it's interesting that I saw all three of these species in the Twin Butte area earlier in the year. It often seems to be the case that I get the species I see in the Waterton area a month or so later in Calgary.
