Macro micro



Martin T kindly asked if I had larger pictures of the micro shown in  my last post, three down from here, and here are a couple which I hope will help.  Many thanks, Martin Wainwright, Thrupp, Oxon

  2. Hi Martin,
    Like Mark's above, your specimen does look to be Elachista apicipunctella although the white head isn't quite so obvious here. However, it does clearly have the third sub-apical white spot which distinguishes it from the other similar Elachista species.

  3. I agree this is apicipunctella.
