    Nice find, Wildflower! Was a bit worried when you shared it and it is titled "unknown", but glad you found it ;) Posted 10 years ago

      You know I don't like admitting defeat and posting unknown species that's why I've kept these tiny moths for so long... I think I've got both of them now. Posted 10 years ago, modified 10 years ago

        Excellent job. It's ok to post unknown species. A reasonable effort is expected to identify it, and we all know you go way beyond that. Posted 10 years ago
