2nd June 2017

The first Cochylis species of the year looked interesting on first glance and I quickly suspected C.molliculana. This is a species I caught at Corbett St in 2013 and was narrowly beaten to the first for VC29 (one was caught at Wicken Fen in 2012).

I haven't heard of any further records since although there have been one or two in Hunts while Andy Banthorpe reports several in Beds this year. So tentatively a third for Cambs but I imagine a few more records might come out of the woodwork.
