300+ Lincolnshire Update

Had a busy couple of weeks adding just over a hundred species mainly from my garden and paddock. Probably spending to much time glaring at spear thistles and the like, although this paid dividends last evening when I potted up the micro- moth Elachista gleichenella. Apparently this is on the wing a month early and the food plants are not in the near vicinity that I know off, it brings my garden moth list to 840.

The list below may contain errors but with the new Hoverfly book and keys to identification on the internet I feel most are correctly identified some others may differ and correct me. I,m sure Mark will correct me on the Beetles.
