I would be grateful for help with IDs
Micros came to light last few days of may

Scoporia ambigualis

Coleophoridae?

Tortricidae?

Thyme plume?
Crambidae?

Wax moth?

    I can do a few I think. Your Coleophorid is Plutella porrectella, then a Bryotropha sp, pass on the plume, then Scoparia pyralella, pass on the final one, but it's not a Wax moth

    The last one looks like Ephestia uniclorella but ca't be sure from the photo.

    Hi Alan, having looked at the plume again I think it is Emmelina monodactyla. The pairs of spurs on the tibia, nearest the body, of the hindleg look to be much longer on the inside than on the outside.

    Best,
    Nigel
