Any help IDing this #micromoth greatly appreciated. North Somerset this afternoon. @MOTHIDUK @FlyinginFordham @BritishMoths

A surprise find at Messingham Pits @LincsWildlife reserve this morning was the rather smart micromoth Orange-blotch Cosmet (Chrysoclista lathamella). A first for Lincolnshire apparently! 😀 Found under a leaf of Alder Buckthorn but a willow feeder. @savebutterflies @BNAscience

#waspaday First attempts at leafmine-rearing in 2025. A few successes enjoyed with moths & their parasitoids, equally fascinating. This fancy-antenna'd little eulophid ♂️ emerged from a pupa of micromoth Cosmopterix pulchrimella - Necremnus & Pnigalio id possibles 💚🍃 #wasplove

🔎 GroupGets.com/micromoth 🎤 MicroMoth is the world's smallest full-spectrum acoustic development board, based on AudioMoth and the Gecko processor range. Like its namesake, it can capture audible and ultrasonic frequencies recording uncompressed audio to a microSD at 8,000 to 384,000 samples per second, sharing software and firmware with AudioMoth.

I participated in the National Moth Week 2025 quiz contest and got place among the top ten qualifiers (the winners). Today, I received Common Micromoth of India field guide as my award. 😀🏆 #NationalMothWeek

Jewel-like eulophid wasp reared from the leafmine of a micromoth (Phyllonorycter sp). I had been rather hoping for the moth on this occasion. 💚🍃

A rare micromoth, Eretmocera sp., attracted to light blue colour of my jacket in broad daylight today though most of the moths are nocturnal. This moth seems to have a preference for blue over yellow. It also mimics cerambycid (long-horned) beetles. #moth #entomology

It was, eye was drawn to what looked like a micromoth. Case was on a young elder - I can't find a specific casebearer for that hostplant so best guess is a polyphagous species like C. serratella. Reports of G. areator raised from serratella but wasp uses a broad range of hosts.

Today was the first day since Good Friday that I didn't see a butterfly on the wing, a run of 36 days. I've got to go through my diaries to find out if I've ever gone so long before in spring! Here's a nice micromoth Olethreutes arcuella from t'other day

Just some of the insects seen on Ox-eye daisies in my meadow today. Glyphipterix simpliciella #micromoth Nettle-tap #moth & hoverflies.

The first time I find Eratophyes amasiella (Oosterse Schone) in the trap in the garden, a really beautiful micromoth. The species was probably accidentally introduced in Western Europe, most likely as a caterpillar or pupa, with logs (wikipedia).

Plain Pollen-moth, Micropterix calthella. First time I have seen this micromoth feeding on sedge pollen. I am more familiar seeing them on buttercup species.
