I caught this in my garden trap in Ipswich on 12/8 and would appreciate any comments. I can’t get away from the fact that it looks like Ancylis laetana but it is well outside the normal flight period. Am I overlooking something else?

Looks good to me Stuart. We can get out of season catches. It is possibly a second brood but seems more likely late in this poor year.
Thanks for the approval Raymond. Although a seemingly straightforward ID, the late date and lack of any aspen close by made me seek a second opinion – something I’m keen to get for scarcer species.
