Cilycwm micros
I've been away so these are micros from week before last - help would be appreciated. I'm afraid the quality of the photos is not great. Isabel
Nos 1 & 5 Rhopobota naevana; No 4 Celypha striana; No 7 knackered, abandon it; No 8 I agree on lacustrata but No 2 looks more like mercurella to me; I agree on pascuella and lacunana.
A start: Nos 2 & 8 = Eudonia lacustrata (note dark `x` mark on each wing), no 3 = Crambus pascuella?
ReplyDeleteNo 6 = Celypha lacunana.
