On 8th July I potted a small tortrix which was resting on my car as I was about to leave home to set traps on Foulness. After a mammoth trapping session with >2000 moths of 180 species, 13 of which were new for Foulness, I found that the only moth new to me was this small tortix.

Seven species have been added from the genital determination service. These include Augasma aeratella which has not been seen in Britain since 1956 and was considered extinct. There have been several subsequent records in southern England all to the NI moth lure. In association with identifying Pammene suspectana I have written a page to aid the identification of the difficult P.albuginana group.
