Nothing in the same league as Clifden Nonpareil (obviously) but 22 species is pretty good for my garden in mid September. Highlight was
Phyllonorycter platanoidella new for the site. I see the mines of this species on the Norway Maples down by the River Taff fairly regularly, though not on the street maples nearer the garden.

Also this
Ectoedemia which is probably a worn
sericopeza (another Norway Maple miner) but I've retained it for closer inspection.

Macros included Blood-vein (3rd garden record), Light Emerald (having a strong 2nd brood this year) and Large Ranunculus.
