Seeking clarification please...

Post by Drtim55 »

Hi all, we caught this micro yesterday and have two possible contenders - Scoparia ambigualis & Scoparia basistrigalis, so we are looking for clarification on the ID please.

Hi Tim

This is Scoparia ambigualis. I am not aware of any confirmed Cheshire records of Scoparia basistrigalis

Regards
Steve
