HIST., 8: 1995 95 Micro-lepidoptera seen during the day included mines of Stigmella lapponica (Wocke) and S. confusella (Wood) (Nepticulidae) which were abundant on the birch trees on Tulloch Moor. The Yponomeutid Argyresthia goedartella (L.) was beaten in numbers from the birches. Two or three of the plume moth Stenoptilia pterodactyla (L.) were encountered by the car-park at Tulloch Moor along with the pyrale Agriphila tristella (D. &. S.). The Tortricoid Olethreutespalustrana (Lien. & Zell.), very much a northern species, was seen on the Moor. A single Cedestis subfasciella (Steph.) (Yponomeutidae) was disturbed from a pine tree in Abernethy Forest, several Epinotia ramella (L.) were flushed from birches and Agriphila straminella (L.) was seen amongst the trees. A number of beetles (Coleoptera) and bugs (Hemiptera) were recorded on the Moor, of which the more noteworthy were the green tiger beetle Cicindela campestris L. and the Carabids Carabus glabratus Payk. and Notiophilus aquaticus (L.) the first two as dead remains. Fourteen species of Hemiptera were recorded including the local mirid Globiceps dispar (Boh.). The common lizard Lacerta vivipara Jacq. was seen and a predated egg-shell of the capercaillie Tetrao urogallus L. was found amongst the heathers (det. Stewart Taylor). In the grounds of Abernethy Forest Lodge (NJ020160, altitude 300 m) at the end of the afternoon, the local mirid bug Bothynotus pilosus (Boh.) was amongst ten species of Hemiptera recorded and two pupae of the silphid beetle Necrodes littoralis (L.) were found by Steve Moran under a brick in a small dumping area. The pupae were reared and an adult emerged on 1994. The common rhagionid fly Rhagio lineola F. was on the wing. At dusk the party was swelled by another two guests and a Robinson trap and two Heath traps were set up in the edge of the pine forest at Rynettin, (NJ0
