I had a new moth for the garden this week, the rather pretty Ethmia quadrillella.
The caterpillars live in a silken web and feed on the foliage of comfrey and lungwort. Have not seen either of these nearby so must keep a better look out.
I don't think this has an English name, but if it did it would be the Platypus Skull Moth. Or at least that's what I see when I see it from above!
