Small Clouded Brindle, and Elegia similella?

After much mulling over the guide books and on the web, I think the noctuid below is a Small Clouded Brindle?


I also found this micro in last night's garden trap, which looks to me like Elegia similella. The forewing length is 9mm.


Finally, any help with this tortix below would be much appreciated. The forewing length is 8mm.

    Hi Steve, I agree with Small Clouded Brindle and Elegia similella, while the third looks to me like Hedya pruniana.

      Thanks Dave. I can see now that the tortrix is Hedya pruniana.
