Possible Blastobasis lacticolella

This micro was in the trap this morning. My best guess is Blastobasis lacticolella - is this right?

    Hi David,
    That's a Phycitodes species and almost certainly binaevella. We get both binaevella and maritima locally and size-wise your specimen seems to be on the dividing line between the two. P.binaevella is a lot more common, though, and seems to be having a particularly good year.
