Caloptilia sp?
Posted: Thu Apr 01, 2021 4:32 pm
Tuesday night was my best March trapping night ever for my Macclesfield garden; 85 moths of 15 species. Just one I can't identify (see pictures attached).I wondered if it might be a Caloptilia sp (perhaps populetorum?) because of the long legs but it doesn't really look like any of the photos in the books. I'm willing to dissect it but, before I do so, can anybody advise on what it might be?
Best wishes, Tim
