The micros
I took home to ID were as follows:
2x 518
Coleophora teifolii
2x 1201
Eucosma cana
2x 640
Batia lunaris
1x Scoparia
ambigualis
1x Cydia
splendana
1x
Bryotropha affinis
1x
Batrachedra praeangusta
Plus two to
ID.
The mystery
micro/caddisfly netted beforehand was indeed a caddisfly.
An
enjoyable, calm, warm night with loads of moths and no mossies or midges.
Batia lunaris - forewing 5mm.
Coleophora trifolii - showing the thickly scaled base to the antennae.
Cydia splendana - all three micros new to me plus umpteen new macros.
