Mompha or Gelech ?

Could anyone help ID these two. Both found on short grass on Pitstone Hill.


 
Thanks,
Greg

  1. Would need a size reference to be sure, Greg, but it is a Mompha and if really small (wing length less than 5mm) then almost certainly Mompha miscella which is widespread across the Ivinghoe hills.

  2. Thanks Dave,
    I'm sure you're right but I reckon the FL was as near 5mm as you can get.
