Apotomis capreana (Hübner, [1817])  
Status .....In view of the number of similarly coloured/marked species, this moth may be overlooked to a degree, although we have certainly never recorded it from any of the sites we trapped. The key identification feature, is the white, hook-like projection running into the darker wing markings. There are several recent county records. Thanks go to Dave Morton for supplying the specimen in the phototographs.
