Mompha jurassicella

A small Moth was spotted flying in the early morning sunshine before I went to work, as I always have a net on standby in the garden, I quickly reached over and grabbed it and netted it first time.

It was a Mompha species and resembled Mompha jurassicella, a rare moth here in Herts, and one i've encountered twice before in my garden.

The moth was whisked over to Grame Smith, whereby it was confirmed as indeed, Mompha jurassicella.

This made it moth no.33 for the year.
