A pug and a micro

I had this pug a few nights ago in my garden trap, fw length 10mm. I am leaning towards Currant Pug, but I know pug ids can be tricky just from a photo.
Last night I had this micro come to a lit window. It looks like one of the Mompha species, and the fw length is 6mm.

  1. Hello Steve,

    I think I'd agree with Currant Pug, while the micro is Epermenia chaerophyllella.

    1. Thanks Dave. I have seen the Epermenia once before, in April 2018, but had forgotten about it until now.
