Back on the blog

Well work has been too manic to allow any time to keep the blog going, but hopefully now back and able to catch up a bit. To kick start things, just a few early stage finds of late...
Coleophora albitarsella
Coleophora gryphipennella

Coleophora alticolella/glaucicolella
Coleophora argentula

More from the case files...

There are still larval cases of some of the Coleophorids to be found, here are a few of my relatively recent finds:
Coleophora albitarsella on Ground Ivy Coleophora solitariella on Stitchwort Coleophora limosipennella on Elm

Just in case

A bit of searching has yielded dividends over the last few days.

Plenty of Coleophora albitarsella on Ground Ivy, particularly that growing in the shelter of Bramble.




And this needle in a haystack on a lichen-covered Oak tree close to home today - Narycia duplicella
