Micro for ID

Post by bobhelencoan »

Not many moths recently but found this micro in the trap this morning. Wondered about Bryotropha but we are not really sure what it is at this time of year. Help appreciated. Paper is 5mm squared. Bob & Helen

Happy New Year Bob & Helen

Carpatolechia decorella is one of the few Gelechiidae to overwinter as an adult

Regards
Steve
