This post is for last Friday.  There were 15 macros of 13 species in the trap on Friday morning.  8 were new backyard species for the year and 3 where new species.  I've identified one as Lobophora magnoliatoidata but nivigerata cannot be entirely ruled out.  Either way it's a new backyard species.  The light trap has not been out for the last two nights due to heavy rain.

Pale Metanema Moth (Metanema inatomaria)

Trichordestra tacoma
Apamea commoda

Lobophora magnoliatoidata

Ruddy Quaker (Protorthodes oviduca)

Rustic Shoulder-knot (Apamea sordens)
