The Elachista as mentioned in my previous post has emerged - still not 100% on the ID.
Forewing 3.6mm.
And these two at Copley - the one on the right is the usual Cocksfoot Moth but the one on the left is without the dorsal, white horseshoe!!
A species new to science perhaps?
Maybe not :-(

The Elachista is canapennella, a seldom seen female.
