Hi Goldie,
The first one looks like anania funebris - White Spotted Sable moth. This is not at all common.

I'll 3rd Anania funebris.
Tiny moth isn't it with a habit of flying under the leaves?

Sure is. I saw a handful at Glasdrum Wood a few days back and we get them on Crymlyn Burrows in Swansea too.ScottD wrote:I'll 3rd Anania funebris.

Re: ID for Moth's please Goldie M
I'll rephrase that for better clarity - it has a habit of landing on the undersides of leaves.ScottD wrote: with a habit of flying under the leaves?

Thanks every body, it was very tiny and I saw it whilst looking for the Dukes, first time I've seen one but it seems they've been seen at GB before, thanks Nigel for your posting about that.
Thanks again every one Goldie![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
