Moth species recorded at Daneway Banks Nature Reserve 2000-2023

Pammene ignorata

Grapholita pallifrontana (pRDB3)

Since 2000 a total of 628 moth species have been recorded on Daneway Banks NR, as listed below. Several other species were found there in the 20th century, but not yet since 2000. Daneway Banks NR is jointly owned by the Royal Entomological Society (see https://www.royensoc.co.uk/conservation) and the Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust (see https://www.gloucestershirewildlifetrust.co.uk/nature-reserves/daneway-banks)

2 nationally rare species have been found at the reserve (species given provisional Red Data Book status in the 2012 review of the status of microlepidoptera in Britain), and 32 nationally scarce species: 4 'Notable a' micro-moths, 26 'Notable b' micro-moths and 2 Scarce (B) Macro-moths.

For each species the table below lists the Agassiz, Beavan & Heckford checklist number, the Bradley list number (0 if not in that list), scientific name, common name (in brackets if not given in the ABH checklist and taken from elsewhere), national status, number of years recorded since 2000, year range (first and last years recorded since 2000), and typical UK larval food. The list will be updated annually from records sent to the VC33 (East Gloucestershire) Moth Recorder, Robert Homan, and more frequently with my own records from the site and sometimes with additional species reported to me. Records prior to 2012 are from the former Gloucestershire Moth Recorder Roger Gaunt's database.

Scientific family, genus and species names and their order in the list are from the Agassiz, Beavan & Heckford checklist of the Lepidoptera of the British Isles (December 2013) with subsequent published revisions. Typical UK larval food information was derived from several reference books and other publications, and may not be completely accurate. National status is from the 2012 review for micros. The Atlas of larger moths in Great Britain and Ireland published in late 2019 contains IUCN red list threat assessments which do not necessarily indicate scarcity. They are given here together with rarity/scarcity determined by the number of 10Km UK map dots in the Atlas for 2000-2016: at most 15 for Rare, 16-30 for Scarce (A) and 31-100 for Scarce (B) species. These are equivalent to the micro status of pRDB, Na and Nb respectively.

Following the publication in September 2015 of a paper showing that Delplanqueia inscriptella occurs in the UK and D. dilutella seems to be very restricted in its range, all previous Gloucestershire records of D. dilutella are doubtful, so such records from Daneway Banks have been omitted.

The species name links in the table below are to the species entries on the UK Moths website. NB If the scientific name used for a species on that website does not match the name on this page, the link will not work.

Please note that the Gloucestershire Moth Distribution Maps are not updated frequently, so some species listed below may not yet be shown as recorded in any of the three Daneway tetrads S090G/L/M. Also some informal reports of species from the reserve are listed below, but such records will only be mapped if the recorder sends them to the VC33 (East Gloucestershire) Moth Recorder. Tetrad SO90G also includes Siccaridge Wood NR which has post-2000 records of some moth species not recorded on Daneway Banks since 2000, including two nationally rare species one of which was recorded at Daneway twice in the 1950s.
