Micro ID Help Please ?

The first I think might be a worn Holly Tortrix ? It was barely 7mm long.
Any help much appreciated, thanks.

Possible Holly Tortrix ? - Marple - 25 Aug 2017

Hi Martyn,

With hardly any scales left it will be difficult to identify without dissecting.

Thanks Steve - any thoughts on the second one ?

Thought they were the same moth, from different angles. Both are worn but the first one does resemble Holly Tortrix and the second one could be Blastobasis lacticolella.

Regards,
Steve

OK, thanks Steve.
