Thanks guys. Most helpful. The T/A doesn't appear in my Collins so I would never have nailed that one.

Thankyou Adam.
yes - Collins shows most of the common macros but only 20 or so micros so I guess most micros don't feature in it.
thanks again.

Look on UKMoths, you will see that Trachycera suavella has whitish patches at the sides with black spots. There is little doubt that it is Trachycera suavella.
