Caloptilia hemidactylella

There has been much discussion recently amongst some group members about Calopotilia hemidactylella following a number of confirmed sightings in the south of the county. The moth pictured below was taken at my 11w actinic trap in Woolpit on the 28th August and has been confirmed today by Jon Clifton as a female – possibly the first female to have been recorded in Suffolk.
