Hi Greg,

Very poor up here, with just the three common species last night.

Your micro's are Dyseriocrania subpurpurella and Acleris hastiana. I was struggling with the last one until I came across the top - middle photo in Manley (2015), as I've not seen this form before.

Regards,
Steve

Thanks Steve.

I'd have never have guessed those two.
