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

Further to this, see Mark's post just above and my comment on it 🙂
ReplyDeleteHi Martin,
ReplyDeleteLike 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.
I agree this is apicipunctella.
