Acleris cristana?

Would I be correct in thinking that the micro below is one of the many forms of Acleris cristana? I nearly missed it, as it made an escape bid from my garden trap, but luckily it landed on a window where I could recapture it.



In addition, I cannot make up my mind about the moth below. Can someone help me out?

    Yes to cristana, Steve, and your uncertain noctuid is another variant of Lead-coloured Drab.

    Many thanks again Dave. I was leaning towards Lead-coloured Drab, but was hesitant because it looked different from the paler specimen I had the previous week.
