huge antennae yet cannot ID (1 Viewer)

[jalethbridge]

Hi all
This seems very worn - I thought Pale Eggar might fit, I can detect a line across the wing, but totally wrong time of year, and I cannot explain the largish black spots near the base of the wing at nearly the widest point. Pretty big too. The other is likely a carpet on shape, but not sure which. Its pretty small, perhaps just over 1cm across, slightly larger than a thumbnail.
Thanks
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan - my punt would be Pale Tussock and Yellow-Barred Brindle.

See what you think.

Cheers

Hi James
Defo Pale Tussock, thanks. YBB, I don't know, I can see no green tinges on my moth.
Thanks

If you have the concise guide check out page 50 bottom row, second in from RHS.

Other than that I would consider the highflyers but it's not one of those.

Totally agree with Yellow-barred Brindle.

All the best
