Acrobasis species   Message List

Hi

I have added a couple of pictures to my Pocklington Moths folder. Is it possible
from these to say whether this is Acrobasis consociella or Conobathra repandana?
I favour the former, but have minimal experience of them, so better to
check...either would be new for the garden.

Had a walk round Allerthorpe Common (VC61) earlier and disturbed Bordered Beauty
and Small Yellow Wave from undergrowth by the track...nice!

Hi Ian I've never seen C. rependana but have had a few A. consociella. I suppose I'd put my money on A. consociella. I presume the size fits that species? ...

Thanks, Charlie. Size would be between the two species...upper limit of consociella. Goater mentions discal spots smaller on C. repandana and that species more...
