We have almost completely lost confidence with identifying most pugs.
Lat night was had a green pug and three double stripped pugs and also three others. Two we think are the same the third. larger pug we think maybe Fryers. Any contributions to the ID most welcome.
We have also posted a photo of a coleophora species is case it can be identified.
Many thanks Bob & Helen

Re: pugs!!!
Hi Bob & Helen
To quote Brian Hancock "don't struggle with the faded and worn specimens"
Freyer's Pug looks OK. A could be Common or Grey but B is far too worn
Regards
Steve

Update following dissections
Steve Hind has dissected a couple of these moths for us. Pug A turned out to be a Common pug male. The Coleophora proved to be Coleophora siccifolia, not a common species in Cheshire. Thanks again to Steve's expertise. Bob & Helen
