I thought this first one would be easy, but can't find it in Sterling & Parsons 'Field Guide...' or the Clifton & Wheeler 'Bird-dropping Tortrix Moths...'.

Help with ID needed
Here are a couple of moths I still can't ID from the very wet night (5th July?).
I thought this first one would be easy, but can't find it in Sterling & Parsons 'Field Guide...' or the Clifton & Wheeler 'Bird-dropping Tortrix Moths...'.
The second one looks like it ought to be a Wainscot, but I can't work out which one. I wish I'd taken more photos now.
Many thanks
Mick Jones

Hello Mick, the top one is actually a macro-moth, Marbled White Spot, while the lowest is Light Arches.
