Various mystery micros

Still playing catch-up from earlier in the summer here in Wolvercote, Oxfordshire; here are a few micros from recent months which I can't quite make up my mind on:

Presumably some sort of Cochylis, 4/8/18

Should be quite recognisable, 7mm, 4/7/18

Likewise, 9mm, 9/7/18

Possibly an Ancylis sp., 10mm, 5/7/18

Maybe a small Calamotropha paludella, 25/6/18

Another mysterious micro, 10mm, 19/7/18
As ever, all suggestions gratefully received.

    Hello Steve, the first is Cochylis molliculana, the second an Aethes sp (too faded now to ID with certainty), the third is a Eudemis sp (probably profundana), the fourth is an Epinotia sp (probably immundana), the fifth is indeed Calamotropha paludella and the sixth is Eucosma obumbratana.
