Autumnal moths part 3

Believe it or not these are all variations of the Common Marbled Carpet moth Chloroclysta truncata. Like a lot of British Moths it is really quite confusingly variable in colouration. It is very common and can be seen flying any month from May to November.
The 3 in this photograph were all caught during one night in my moth trap...along with not a lot else! Seems my moth trapping fun is probably nearly over for 2013!
Sad times.........
