Could I ask whether I'm right in thinking that this minute arrival last night is
Caloptilia semifascia? It shared the eggboxes with my first Red-green Carpet of 2014, one Chocolate-tip (with a wing fragment from another outside the trap), three Clouded Drabs, two Hebrew Characters, a Common Quaker, a large beetle and an earwig. The thing in the background is my Biro, for scale.

Hi Martin, yes that's semifascia.
ReplyDeleteLovely, many thanks. It's so small, I nearly missed it. Much appreciate expertise, as always. M
