Looking for confirmation - Bryotropha affinis?

 Looking for confirmation, is this Bryotropha affinis? Garsington, Oxford.

While I'm here, a couple of other micros that I'm more sure of, Platyedra subcinerea and from this morning,Assara terebrella.

    Hello Mark,
    The first one needs a better photo as we can't see clearly what's going on with the black marks in the centre of the wing. You could be correct, but I have a feeling that basaltinella/dryadella might be more likely. I would agree with the other two though, and the terebrella is a nicely marked specimen.

    thanks Dave, next time I'll need to retain it (if I ever get one again!)
