Tineola bisselliella

Still very poor catches here, I've yet to see a Clouded Drab. However this is a new one for me, Tineolla bisselliella (I think). About 5-6mm.

  1. I think that looks good for Tineola bisselliella, Mark. Some of the other "Clothes Moths" are more difficult to separate but the yellow head and plain golden wings of this one seem characteristic of the species. The books say it is common but I've only ever seen it once, so I think that's actually quite a good find these days.
