Please can anyone confirm my identification of the below two images as female Small Dotted Buff?
After some deliberation & spending a lot of time looking at images of Cloaked Minor I came to the conclusion that this is a female Small Dotted Buff. I reviewed some of my older images of unidentified moths and found the second image below which I believed is also a Small Dotted Buff. Apologies for the poor quality of the second image - which is a reflection of the equipment I was using 10 years ago!

I would have recorded the 2020 individual as Cloaked Minor. I can't make out enough detail on the earlier specimen.

Thnaks Steve - agree the old one is a pretty poor image.
