ID Brown Grey Moth

Hi All,

This little beauty turned up in my garden last night, near to but not in my Skinner trap. I can't find a match in Waring, so wondered whether it was a Pyralid or some other micro species?

It's not much more than 10-12mm in length. Note also the relatively long antennae.

All help would be gratefully received!



With thanks and best wishes,

Steven.

Thanks Lance,

Looking on UK Moths, it certinly looks like the right one. There are several similar-looking Udea species, some of which are more scarce than others.

Thanks again,

Steve.
