A good night last night, Friday. Several new moths for us including our first blackneck and the attractive micro Lozotaeniodes formosana. There are also those we are finding difficult to pin down.
We had an uncertain/rustic we could not ID directly but the moth has laid eggs so hopefully they might solve the problem.

First, is the moth a Dog's tooth or a Pale shouldered brocade? We have never seen either before.
The rest are micros we need help with. Thanks in advance. Bob & Helen

The micro moths have been identified as
Notocelia roborana male , a new moth for us.
A worn Bryotropha terrella female
and finally a cork moth Nemapogon cloacella male.
Thanks are again due to Steve Hind. Bob & Helen
