    Micro for I/D

    I'd say a pyralid, maybe Euzophera pinguis

    Who is living in my house?

    Do report back on how they work, I'd love to know.

    Who is living in my house?

    It could be a Case-bearing Clothes moth, aka the Carpet Moth. I'm in on-going battle with them, but don't like resorting to sprays. The 'cases' which house the caterpillars are easy to spot - quiet corners, edge of carpets etc, and easy to dispose at that stage. For adults on the wing (or...

    A few NEast London sps to include a “wave” species.

    I'd say Chrysoteuchia culmella for 3 and 4.
  5. R

    A few unknowns from NEast London last night.

    The third one looks to me like an Agonopterix - perhaps A. Proquinquella.

    Moth in Lowestoft, Suffolk, UK

    I agree Brown House-moth - Hofmannophila pseudospretella
  7. R

    Confirmation NEast London

    I think they can be more strongly marked than the Lewington example. The Norfolk Moths web site is good for photos of variations - Norfolk Moths

    Confirmation NEast London

    I'd say Red Underwing.

    White-shouldered House moth or Beet moth ?

    Maybe Blastobasis adustella, though hard to tell from that angle.

    Large white moth. Possible day flyer.

    Yes, sounds like a Box tree Moth to me.

    Brain glitch: what's this?

    How about a Sycamore?
  12. R

    Confirmation and ID’s NELondon

    I'd say No 1 Caloptilia alchimiella/robustella, No 3 Small White Wave
  13. R

    Noctuid + pug, NE.London?

    2. Possibly a Frosted Green?? 1. Of the early pugs most like an Oaktree, but I'm not at all sure. Is the green tinge a trick of the light?
  14. R

    NEast London, having trouble IDing this moth?

    Possibly a Pale Brindled Beauty??

    Moth problem in the room

    In my experience Carpet moth (Tinea pellionella) larvae seem to be able to feed on housedust, it must contain some keratin. So getting rid of the dust and keeping a close watch for larvae may get things under control. Its easier to catch larvae than adult moths, though a vacuum cleaner can...

    North Norfolk, UK

    It's a Blastobasis Adustella
  17. R

    Too small for BHM?

    Maybe Bryotropha domestica?
  18. R

    Broughton Down (Hants)

    I'd say Nomophila noctuella (Rush Veneer)
  19. R

    Moth ID, Cyprus

    It's a bit like Aglossa pingualis (Large Tabby), but not quite (and based only on UK experience).
  20. R

    NELondon, having problems assigning this Geom?

    1. How about Clay Triple-lines? 2. Yes, Small Blood-vein
  21. R

    Moths seen in Poland

    2. Looks like a Straw Dot - I guess the stance has distorted the wing shape slightly. 3. Could be Celypha Lacunana - they can have a bluish tinge. (Though I'm basing both on UK experience)
  22. R

    Micro ID help

    I'd say 1. Blastobasis adustella and 3. maybe Mother of Pearl
  23. R

    Moth ID help please

    3. Maybe Dark Arches?
  24. R

    NEast London sp?

    or a Crambid. Possibly Udea fulvalis??
  25. R

    Small, brown and mothy

    Yes, a very distinctive stance - if only the rest of the torts had good distinguishing features!
