Pseudoswammerdamia combinella (Hübner, 1786)
Status ..... Seems genuinely scarce in the county, but surely has to be somewhat under-recorded. Despite some other species looking superficially similar, this species is relatively easy to identify and can certainly be done with a hand lens or good photograph. Recorded at Eakring in 2003 and on a few other occasions there, including most recently in late April 2025, but we have recorded it at Market Warsop in 2016.
