This unmistakable moth spends the winter as an adult, tucked away in a sheltered spot like a cave or outbuilding.

This beautiful moth is often found resting on leaves, though it does also fly during the day.

This sooty-black, day-flying moth is active on sunny days, rarely settling in one place for long.

You're more likely to see the attractive, brightly coloured caterpillars than the mullein moth itself.

The yellow flower heads of common ragwort are highly attractive to bees and other insects, including the cinnabar moth.

Golden banks of common rock-rose make a spectacular sight on our chalk and limestone grasslands in summer. A creeping shrub, it is good for bees, moths and butterflies.

A very rare species, this moth is now limited to one site in the UK. Males can be a striking reddish buff in colour.
