I was only able to blacklight for two days out of the following weeks, but I sure got enough new species for quite a while!
This fall so far has been weird, sometimes in a good way. During the first few weeks of fall and late summer, I had been (and still) am recording waaaay more species compared to this spring and summer. I honestly have no idea what's causing this!
I saw many new species and many returning visitors over at the light. Here are some of the species I saw that were past visitors to the UV & MV light.
Other Bugs
That's the end of my sneak peek EntoJournal series! You can find the full version (including the new and unidentified species) on my blog! To all the people who have ID'd my observations, thank you so much for all the help! It is welcomed warmly! :-)
