Probably a wanderer from the acidic gritstone ridge just south of your home Mat.
ReplyDeleteYou've stolen my thunder, Mat! I also had Catoptria margaritella in the trap last night, the highlight of an otherwise fairly unremarkable session although numbers were good.
ReplyDeleteCatoptria margaritella is on the wing in numbers at many bog sites at the moment. Goater suggests it's rather rare, but I see it on almost every bog I survey in Wales. Not a common moth away from bogs, though it does wander a bit.
