Topic: 2 More Moths To Add

Chris,

2 further moths to be added to the UKSI and Recorder family - these are: 

- Plum Lappet Odonestis pruni (Linnaeus, 1758).  It was found by the Bradshaw family on Richmond Hill, London on the 15th July 2014.  See Atropos, Issue Number 55, Page 47.

- Accented Hawk-moth Nephele accentifera (Palisot de Beauvois, 1821) which was found by E.F. Thomas at the entrance to Kew herbarium, Surrey on the 16th October 2014.
