Re: Small Brown Caterpillar I.D please

Yes i agree the brown form of Phlogophora meticulosa, The larva is polyphagous so wont be to picky with what it eats. They are found throughout the year so its likely to be ok despite the cold although as you say the warmth will increase its metabolism and it will soon grow to adulthood.
