Three queries /validations

I have the first two as Bryotropha affinis and senectella? but the third, in not to good a shape, eludes me. Any help welcome. Thank you

  1. Steve, I wonder if your third one is Light Brown Apple Moth. btw how many Jersey Tigers have you had so far? I know you got one(?) last year. I'm still waiting for mine here.

  2. Only the one Mark, I went out at midnight and it was getting in a frantic state at the light but wouldn't go in. Luckily I managed to collect it a large square pot.
    I think you could be right on the LBAM

  3. Looking at the other two moths, I'd go along with Bryotropha affinis for the first but I think the second is more likely to be Bryotropha terrella (a bit too worn to tell for sure, though).
