Amongst 140+ species from the coast on the very hot night last Tuesday was this 7mm long moth. I'm completely stuck so any ideas very welcome. White head, dark tuft on thorax, black dots, white shading etc all make it look do-able but I can't get it.
Many thanks.
I'd guess at a Cnephasia sp.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave, that looks like a good bet. I can't find a similar image anywhere but I'll keep it just in case I can persuade anyone to dissect it!
ReplyDeleteI'll do it at some point, but if you could hang on to it for now that would be great.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Dave. It's potted and labeled, just waiting for a new home!
