Cooler & moonlit last night so very pleased to get this Many-lined in New Romney traps; new for site and only the 6th Dungeness area record. A tad surprised to notice the most recent edition of waring/lewington has STILL not corrected the transposed pics of this spp & Traveler!

Certainly earned our stripes with this beauty @bfossey1 @DungenessBO - this female Bengal Tiger eventually gave herself up on our third trip into Corbett NP on Saturday, wandering out of the forest and on to the track in front of our jeeps - definitely a bucket-list moment!
