Common Rustic aggs Galore:

Last nights trap caught 70 Common Rustic aggs. Other than that quite disappointing.

Didn't trap last night as it was monsooning outside ......

Decent walk on the patch this morning though, including the attached photo which I am not sure about. On the face of it its Phyllonorycter harrissella but the date is a bit off for that species and its miniscule - I reckon max of 5mm wingspan. Any offers anyone ?

Possibly P. harissella - SJ4474 - 22nd July 2017
