The carpet should be bleedin' obvious. Is the noctuid just a Square-spot Rustic? Looks like it has two dark-edged darts on the first cross line, which I haven't found on Square-spot Rustics before.

Finally, the micro. Agnopterix sp. Struggling to get it to species though.

Many thanks as always.

Thanks Sean. Good call on the Purple Bar. Being faded, I don't think I'd have got there!
