Dichrorampha simpliciana is as close as I can get. Can anyone please confirm.

Cheers, John

Hi John
Most Dichrorampha species need dissecting. If you still have the moth, I'll have a look at it for you.
Dichrorampha simpliciana has never been found in our 10km square. Its foodplant, Mugwort, is not that common in the area.
Regards
Steve

Thanks Steve. Unfortunately I have not retained this moth.

Cheers John
