Better night + ID help needed

[A_Neal]

Hi all,

A much better night with 25 moths of 16 species including a NFG Cinnabar. However, I've got several which I'm not sure on.

Photo A - Tinea trinotella?
Photo B - Pug 20mm
Photo C - Small Rivulet ? Sorry about the photo.
Photo D - Clouded-Bordered Brindle?

Thanks in advance,
Alex

Tinea trinotella and Clouded-Bordered Brindle are both correct but I'll pass on your Small Rivulet and pug.
Regards

Hi Alex.

I'd say your photo C. is a Rivulet which is larger with one or sometimes a second much smaller indentation on inner edge of cross band. Also has an earlier flight time May-June
The Small Rivulet has two equal sized indentations on inner edge of cross band which is closer to trailing edge,
flight time June-Aug

The Pug looks like a worn Oak-tree Pug.

Photos of both Rivulets with close ups of indentations for comparison below.

Regards
Greg
