Moth i/d (Grizzled Skipper similarity)
Posted: Sun May 04, 2008 8:26 am
This day flying moth was found in Grizzled Skipper habitat on 3rd May. It fooled me for no more than a millisecond as the jizz was just wrong for a Grizzled Skipper. But the size and colour in flight were not far off Grizzled.
I'm sure it's a common enough species but the vaguely "superficial" likeness to Grizzled Skipper might just fool the unwary.
And what is that common moth that can often make some think that they have found a Dingy Skipper? Latticed Heath? Common Heath? I'm no good with moths.
