Pammene regiana or not

Hi All
I am in the process of tidying up my back log of 2016 photos.
This image of what I think may be Pammene regiana (49.375) taken at m.v trap July 30th 2016. Burton Mere Wetlands RSPB. According to Mapmate it had only been recorded once up to the end of 2015 at this site by Steve Hind.
This would be a first for me so I would welcome confirmation as to its true identity.Sorry for the poor images.
Cheers Harry

Yes Harry, Pammene regiana.
I remember catching this species there back in 1999 when my trap was placed under a sycamore in the car park.
Regards
Steve
