These were taken in the Bergerac area of France in 2005.... I could do with some expert help in ID's if anyone has the inclination....
1) unknown presumably noctuid...

2) Very Small Emerald...

3) Green Silver-lines??...

4) Seems slightly different to our Merveille du Jour..

5) another quite large Emerald...

6) no idea!!...

Hi Paul. Nice moths. I can do the first five.
1. Coronet Craniophora ligustri.
2. Phaiogramma etruscaria.
3. Scarce Silver-lines Bena bicolorana.
4. Marbled Green Cryphia muralis.
5. Sussex Emerald Thalera fimbrialis.
The sixth one has me stumped. At first I thought it looked like a relative of the Vapourer with those antennae, but can find nothing like it. I'll get back to you if I have any inspiration later.

hi paul and misha,

the last one has stumped me also, but the nearest i can come up with is a very worn male gypsy moth or aberration of one, if they have aberrations?
gary.

Gypsy Moth looks good to me - but what do I know?

Seems quite variable: http://www.leps.it/SpeciesPages/LymanDispar.htm

Gary and Pete. I agree. A worn slightly unusual male Gypsy. There's an image at http://de.academic.ru/dic.nst/dewiki/1415324 that comes close.
Edit. Oops this link doesn't work. I found it via Google images. Try http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymantria_dispar
