UK Micromoths

It would appear that I have developed something of a passion for micromoths.  Enough, at any rate, to keep a blog on them.  With the combination of the excellent ‘Field Guide to Micromoths of Great Britain and Ireland’ and a half decent digital camera my entomological life changed.  Here you will find pictures of some of the little blighters that have passed across my camera lens.  Comments and corrections welcome.

Esperia sulphurella – a very small (hardly more than a centimetre long) and attractive little moth. Larvae feed on dead wood. Essex, 2016.
