Cydia amplana and Bactra lancealana?

 Can these be confirmed as Cydia amplana and Bactra lancealana? Re the Cydia I've had one before and it seems there has been some migrant activity, yesterday I got a Vestal.

Finally is this just a knackered Yellow-tail?

  1. Hello Mark,
    I'd certainly agree with Cydia amplana and Yellow-tail. The Bactra is most likely to be lancealana as you suggest, especially as the main confusion species (lacteana) isn't currently known from our area.
