Depressaria pimpinellae?

This Depressaria came to the house lights last night (Loosley Row, Bucks). I think it's D. pimpinellae but would appreciate confirmation/correction.

Thanks,
Nigel

    Hi Nigel, it does look to be a very good match indeed. I've only seen the moth once (on Brush Hill, so you're in the right area for it) and that one was confirmed by dissection. My picture of it looks identical to your specimen which would appear to be the 4th record for VC24. Nice one!
