A carpet and a few micros for ID help

Having finally managed to reduce my questions from Friday night's catch I am left with these if anyone is able to help.



Very dark brown with virtually no markings, head yellowish. Sorry about the quality of the photo.


I can't decide on this carpet.



Is this one even a moth?


An Acrobasis species?




I was considering Bryotropha terrella or a small Brown House Moth but neither seem quite the same as ones I have caught previously.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.

    Hi Andy, the 'carpet' is a Barred Rivulet and the one below it is a moth: Borkhausenia fuscescens.

    Thank you. A couple more for my rapidly growing list.
