A few more micros

 A few from Thursday night.

The first at 8mm looks rather like Gypsonoma oppressana. Maybe a little on the large size?


These two are small 6mm and then 5mm in length. Any help with these welcome.

  1. Hi Andy,
    There's no doubt at all that the first one is Gypsonoma oppressana. The next two have question marks against them, though: the first is a worn Nemapogon species, probably cloacella but I can't really see enough in the way of markings to be sure, while the final moth is also rather worn and could be something like Grapholita funebrana but there are one or two look-alikes (Cydia nigricana also springs to mind).
