Could be under-recorded though due to its similarity to the other species. Surprised you didn’t pick up Diurnea lipsiella at Captain’s wood as the habitat is similar to my site – heathy Oak/Birch woodland. Does fly in the daytime too along woodland rides at this time of year when it is sunny, so may be worth trying that.

Doesn’t seem so common in Suffolk? Lots of Yellow-line Quaker for me and also a few Red-line. Not missing any regular autumn moths now after taking the Blair’s Shoulder-knot but I have never seen Diurnea lipsiella.
