Clover Seed Moth (Grapholita compositella)

This attrective Tortricid is known as the Triple-stripe Piecer, which is a little odd given it clearly sports four stripes, not three?

If you look really closely at the rear of the wings. it also has a leaden metallic patch, or ocellus, on each one.

A bivoltine moth with flight periods of May & June and again in late July and August, the larvae live in both the younger parts of hollow stems and among spun leaves, feeding in the seed-pods of Clover.

Very scattered and local across the UK, usually appearing singly. In Sussex there are few records and numbers appear to be declining.
