Advice on Tortrix (Longwick)

Catches have been improving in volume but not in quality and certainly nothing "blue" near here!

I would appreciate an ID on the tortrix below. Initially I thought Epagoge Grotiana but thought it too "hooked" at the wing tip. Could it be Clepsis Spectrana?

    I reckon that is Acleris rhombana, Andrew.

    Thanks Peter
    I hadn't seen any images quite as dark as my specimen but I can see you are spot on!
