What is tyhe real colour of 1.? I don't think it was so green. I'm thinking Aphelia unitana.

Here in the north unitana is yellowish and very difficult to separate from paleana. However, unitana flies in June-July, paleana in July-August. The hind-wings in unitana are unicolorous dark, in paleana the costal part is paler.
