    Also trapped this one on 12.9.'19; Norfolk, near Fakenham, to MV light; wing-length 8 mm. Must be pallida surely? Thank you, Thomas

    Two Crambids and a mystery Tortrix.

    Hoping someone can confirm that the first is Crambus uliginosellus, found during the day at Buxton Heath, Norfolk, on 19.7.'19. The second came to an MV on 11.8.'19, near Fakenham; not the best of photos I know, but is this Agriphila latistria? The third came to the MV on the above date but I...
