I have some moth photos from the summer that I have not been able to identify. All are from my moth trap in south Lincolnshire. I would very much appreciate any help in identifying them.

Hi JLS, I think these are:

1) Pass
2) Pass
3) Pass
4) Flounced Rustic: http://www.ukmoths.org.uk/show.php?id=167
5) Possible Common Rustic (its very variable, I have found 6 different looking specimins this year) http://www.ukmoths.org.uk/show.php?id=1310
6) One looks like the Brick, other (Another rustic?) http://www.ukmoths.org.uk/show.php?id=220
7) A form of Marbled Beauty. Looks very like this one: http://www.ukmoths.org.uk/show.php?id=4179

Hope some of that might help
