Re: Mostly moths
Well here goes...
1. Oak Eggar young larva.
2. Rosy Rustic
3. Square-spot Rustic (left) and Brown-spot Pinion
4. Slender Groundhopper Tetrix subulata
5. Nuctenea sclopetaria (excellent shot)
6. Brassica Bug Eurydema oleracea
7. Pass on the fly. Are you sure it's a hoverfly?

Re: Mostly moths
I'll second that ID. Britains largest resident tachinid. Host thought to be primarily the Oak Eggar (Lasiocampa quercus). They are brutes among flies.JKT wrote:I'll offer Tachina grossa for the last one based on one of my pictures someone helpfully identified.

Re: Mostly moths
Hi Mark,
As far as I know, thats a common garden Spider, they do get big-ish. I have seen tiny ones and much bigger ones before.
