Jersey Tiger
Jersey Tiger is a moth expanding it's range northwards in southern England. This year it has been having a good year with the poor weather seemingly having no negative effect. I caught this moth on 11th August and is my first ever capture. The larvae feed on a variety of shrubs including Nettle, Dandelion, Ground Ivy, Hemp Agrimony, Groundel, Plantain, Lettuce and White Dead-nettle from September to May.
