Scythris picaepennis
Here's the result of a Gen Det I did today. I caught this moth back on the 25th June and not being familiar with Scythris felt it needed dissection to be sure. The moth turned out to be a male Scythris picaepennis. The larval foodplant is Wild Thyme and Bird's-foot Trefoil both of which are present on Sand Point. If I can get some decent pictures of the gen plate I'll post later but for now here's the adult.
