| | | Pyralid moth?
I think this is a Pyralid moth, but I can't find anything that resembles it online. Any ideas anyone?  |

Hi Gatekeeper, when and where did you see it? It looks like one of the Scopariinae but I'm not 100%.

This is a Rush Veneer, a migrant species. Numbers seem to have been quite good this year!
