My moth trap arrived in Hungary 9 days behind me and was set the next evening. Unfortunately this coincided with a great thunderstorm and torrential rain for most of the night. The rainshield did its job though and there were still about 40 moths of 20 species inside in the morning. These included two Beautiful Arches and several other autumn noctuids (oszibaglyok).
