Wood Tiger

This always seems to have been a scarce and local species.&nbsp; It has been lost from the Quantocks (last record 1970).&nbsp; On Exmoor it is regularly recorded from Haddon Hill as a by-product of butterfly transect recording there, with a scattering of records from elsewhere.&nbsp; On Mendip it occurs in a cluster of nearby species-rich grassland sites - Westbury Beacon, Draycott Sleights, Ubley Warren and Priddy Mineries.

Clouded Buff

A local moth of moors and heathland, patchily distributed in Britain. It may also be found on calcareous grassland and open woodland.&nbsp; Most county records come from Exmoor, the Quantocks and the Brendon Hills. Males may be active during the day and will come to light.

Ruby Tiger

Widespread across the county in
decent numbers, sometimes very common on wetland sites, although numbers have
declined since the turn of the century.
