I usually get Deep-brown Dart in my garden every year, but this year I've had none. This morning this was in the garden trap, looks like a Northern Deep-brown Dart A. lueneburgensis but doesn't look quite right, could be a migrant from eastern Europe blown in on the strong easterlies we've had here for the last few days. Does anyone have any ideas what it might be? No other migrants in the trap.
