Unidentified Moths

April 2018


Caloptilia populetorum?

August 2017



Bactra Sp - possibly lancealana?

or better for an Epinotia - looks close to the rare signatana although its also been suggested that E. nisella is a possibility

(1) Worn European Corn-borer Ostrinia nubilalis?

EDIT: All suggestions point to O. nubilialis


(2) Just a Square-spot Rustic? Has a few features ('tooth', kidney, oval that perhaps look a bit off)

EDIT: Pale version of Garden Dart looks to be the only option here




(3) Small pug species - looks close to search images of Maple Pug?

EDIT: one vote for Maple and one for Oak-tree. It resembles very strongly several individuals of Maple on Norfolk Moths https://norfolkmoths.co.uk/index.php?bf=18120 and is likely too late for Oak-tree.



(4) ????? Resembles some Nemapogon species perhaps......

EDIT: Thanks to David Griffiths for putting me right here - a caddis fly! Specifically Agraylea multipunctata which is has a forewing of just 2.5 - 4mm. Well there you go.

July 2017  - tortrix



EDIT: presumed Celypha lacunana
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 2017 - Nemapogon klagei (wolffiella)?

23rd July 2016 - Small or Mere Wainscot?

***Edit 28/7: looks good for Mere Wainscot, a new species for me ***
