In my shower today. It looks like an Indian Meal Moth (Plodia interpunctella) according to info from internet. A tiny little moth.

Transgenic Plodia larvae expressing the very bright mBaoJin (mStayGold variant) in its silk glands.
Also some gorgeous 3xP3:mCherry staining of larval ocelli and glia.

First trapping for a couple of weeks last night - still not ventured into the Woganosphere with a single Chestnut in this morning. And an indoor wonder on 29 Nov was this Indian Meal Moth (Plodia interpunctella), as in I wonder what that's been eating... #teammoth #ukwildlife

Well they all count....very surprised to find this Indian Meal Moth (Plodia interpunctella) in the trap today, a new species for here. They're normally found in warehouses etc. Otherwise Delicate, Blair's Mocha, 2 Vestal, 3 Clancy's Rustic, 15 Palpita, Gem and Golden Twin-spot.

Plodia interpunctella would theoretically eat cake if the batter was very old and very dry. But P. interpunctella is a Pyralid moth and not a butterfly. The prosecution's arguments stand.

🥁 and the answer is :
Branched polyploid nuclei in the silk glands of a Plodia pantry moth larva. At least 8,000 genome copies (DOI: 10.1139/g2012-060).

Last night's 229/89 best Axminster catch to date. Otherwise v little trapping over busy last few days. Still, some nice Devon quality amongst the few moths to porch light and short-session traps:
Dog's Tooth (175 Devon records)
Indian Meal Moth (71)
Chequered Pearl (41)
Four-spot Dot (11)

We will collaborate closely with a fantastic group of researchers, primarily, as the Mercator Fellow of the program, Volker Hartenstein, and with @nkonst4.bsky.social as our single cell master, @evolvwing.bsky.social as our Plodia whisperer, and @brainglobe.info 's Adam Tyson.

Minimal moth-age for CMO on the road at Sandwich over the weekend ~ Common Quaker, Plodia interpunctella (Indian Meal Moth) & Hebrew Character were pretty much all we recorded from three trapping nights (and a Dotted Border too).
