Cochylis hybridella?





 The closest I can get with this is Cochylis hybridella, but the habitat around here is certainly not chalk or limestone, so I'm unsure. Of the similar species in Sterling & Parsons, the closest is C. dubitana, but there is no dark streak at the base of the costa. FL 7mm.

    Hello Phil,
    That isn't a Cochylis and the general shape of the head and palps should point you to something a bit further along in the Tortrix family. Have a look at Eucosma.

    Aha! E. campoliliana?
    Thanks
