Clouded Brindle

This moth is fairly frequently recorded but scarce, usually being recorded as single individuals to light.&nbsp; It is patchily distributed, common from the Quantocks south-eastwards via Taunton and the Blackdowns towards Crewkerne, along parts of the coast, and around Bath and Bristol, but rare elsewhere.

Webb's Wainscot

A nationally scarce species of wetlands, first recorded in Britain in 1879, since when it has expanded into south-east&nbsp; and south-west England and East Anglia. Turner (1955) lists it as first recorded in the county in 1950, near Weston-Super-Mare.&nbsp; Regularly recorded from the Berrow/Burnham-on-Sea area since 1973, and from Dunster Beach 1998-2001 (this site has not been surveyed since).  Sporadic records from around Langport since 2010, possibly reflecting a population somewhere on the Levels nearby.

Dusky Brocade

A moth of semi-natural habitats and, although widely distributed, quite scarce, the vast majority of records being of single individuals at light.&nbsp; Its populations in the south and west of the county seem to be holding up well, but it seems to be disappearing from less favourable areas in the centre and north.
