Haworth's Minor

Confined to wet moorland on Exmoor, especially around Simonsbath, with cotton-grasses <i>Eriophorum</i> spp.&nbsp; These are amongst the most southerly British populations.&nbsp; Most records come from running lights on its habitat, but it is sometimes recorded flying by day.&nbsp; The ongoing mire restoration works in this area should hopefully benefit this moth.

Angle Shades

Widespread and common right across the county, though numbers seem to have fallen since 2006.&nbsp; Double-brooded, the second brood being larger than the first.&nbsp; Rather more frequently found as a larva than most species.

Small Angle Shades

Found regularly right across the county, usually in small numbers.
