20th October: 1 Cypress Carpet (3rd Dingestow record)

21st October: 1 Streak (2nd Dingestow record), 1 Delicate (3rd Dingestow record), 1 Pauper Pug (new for Dingestow, see separate Blog post)


22nd October: 1 Small Mottled Willow, 1 Large Wainscot, 2 Cydalima perspectalis (new for Dingestow)


24th October: 1 Convolvulus Hawkmoth (6th Dingestow record)


27th October: 1 Vestal

28th October: 1 Orange Sallow, 1 Red Sword-grass, 1 Scarce Bordered Straw, 1 Vestal, 3 Large Wainscot
