Today's Micro: help please

Post by andrewjcharlton »

This was at the trap this morning, despite the overnight rain.
Everything I can see in the book that looks like this seems to be out of season.

Help appreciated as always.

Hi Andrew

Zelleria hepariella. The head down resting posture is diagnostic for this species.

Regards
Steve
