The new (slightly revised) Red List of European Moths has been published by the EU. A summary and links to downloads can be found on our website. Moths play a vital role in ecosystems and there is also an important new document on how to plan for their conservation www.bc-europe.eu/webpage.php?...

This comma (gehakkelde aurelia, P c-album) looks like a little dragon with a small c. Both 1st (July) and 2nd generation (>July) on Dutch Butterfly Monitoring transects have moved forward in time, the 2nd gen most, but that also got much smaller over time. Does hot 2026 even produce a 3rd gen now?
