2018-2021 have been very lean years for diversity, as I've spent more time trying to write workable keys to the new elm species (latest version at https://www.wildlifebcn.org/sites/default/files/2021-07/Complete%20key%20to%20native%20and%20naturalised%20elms.pdf ). I've made some time in winter for more on Cladonia and Sphagnum, and in the New Forest, I finally found Cladonia mediterranea and C. zopfii, and North York Moors C. merochlorophaea and C. cryptochlorophaea. I've worked through nearly all the eastern Englisn Goldilocks Buttercup species too.

Nov: Took a holiday and headed south! The Eden Project yielded a hot-house earwig and woodlouse. A few days on Isle of Wight with Mark Telfer resulted in a fat fistful of lifer myriapods, a few beetles, hemiptera, molluscs, moths, two bristletails, plus a few other bits 'n pieces. Wood Calamint and Martin's Ramping-fumitory were obvious stand out plant additions whilst Shoddy Ragwort was an unexpected bonus lifer for both of us. |

Updated with 126 new species from 2023, many from Shropshire, often with Nigel Jones and local midweek outings with the wildlife group. Also trips to Isle of Wight with Andy Musgrove, Dorset and Cornwall. Year's highlights included New Forest Shieldbug, Large Conehead, my last Fumitory (Martin's Ramping-fumitory!), Baneberry and Yorkshire Sandwort at the nth attempt, Beautiful Marbled at Portland, Angle-striped Sallow in Shrewsbury, finally my first Brachyopa species and a rare twitch for Magnolia Warbler in Glamorgan. Quite a lot of flies to be determined and the bryophyte season is upon us. |

Chrysolina marginata.
2014 additions now included, 92 diptera, mainly calypterates, all from Barnsley area.
Quite a few chironomids new for 2015. Also Ring-necked Parakeet and a new mammal - Chinese Water Deer (not from Barnsley!)
2016 saw 52 new diptera recorded locally, mainly chironomids, 6 new to Yorkshire. Pipunculus oldenbergi was a large pipunculid found at 2 localites also new for Yorks. A mysterious agromyzid that so far has evaded determination awaits specialist attention.
Dusky Thrush. |

Finally (it's only taken me six years or so!) I've got round to properly sorting out the links between my MapMate species names and my iRecord species names. I've also filtered out various species aggregates and sub-species that were being double-counted. I now have a much tidier, but shorter, list! This hides a few additions during 2018 (mostly flies and beetles), and also provides incentive to keep recording during 2019 :) |

Also trips with the North Pennines AONB Recording group means I have been sneaking into Yorkshire, Cumbria and Northumberland. |

Good start to the year with 122 lifers so far, hopefully get a few more over the next few months. Nice to start the year with Isabelline Wheatear for a new bird, Montagu’s Seasnail and Many Eyed Flatworm have to be some of my highlights. A trip to Mallorca has added to my European lists and I've added a few celestial objects too (Saturn and Neptune added to my Spanish list!), no new fossils this year... yet. |

June - Sticky Catchfly from a brief trip to Scotland. Inland Club Rush and Wood Club Rush in Shropshire. Lots of new moths, trapping regularly for the first time so mostly common species but all incredibly exciting for me!
Cut Leaved Self Heal and Large Blue from a gorgeous trip to Daneway Banks.
From the North East: Thistle Broomrape, May Lily, Jacobs Ladder and Red Hemp Nettle, also saw my first Wasp Beetle!
Late end of June has been very intense, LOTS of new plants and many associated Rusts, Smuts and Mildews! Highlights in terms of plants were Starfruit, Toadflax Leaved St Johns Wort, Welsh Mudwort, Red Helleborine, Wild Candytuft, Menai, Orange and Llangollen Whitebeams and Tall Bog Sedge! |
