I actually had 45 species of moth over the weekend, the only problem is, most were caught in nearby woodlands rather than my garden, so won't count towards the challenge :(
My garden list has been somewhat more modest, with mostly carpets and pugs, but a couple of new ones were White Ermine and Shears.
I did a quick audit of my garden spreadsheet, and have now had 62 species in the garden represented by 460 individuals (comparing with over 100 species by this time last year and 3 times as many moths...). Sadly it seems this is not an uncommon picture.
