My best guess on this tiny (4mm) pale moth is
Argyresthia abdominalis but it doesn't occur here
. I thought it was going to be a worn
cupressella but definitely not.
Also a 5mm very pale Phyllonorycter.
Any suggestions for either gratefully received.

If you're sure it's not cupressella, could it be dilectella?
ReplyDeleteNot sure the Phyllo. will be identifiable from a photo.

Thanks George. Yes could be with strongly ringed antennae, but has no apical spot or brown cilia lines. I'll leave it as uncertain for now.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Phyllo I will ignore!
