Caloptilia semifascia (Haworth, 1828) 
Recorded new to Nottinghamshire as recently as October 2022, when an individual was attracted to light at Keyworth (Pinder, N.). A second record of larval feeding cones found on Field Maple, quickly followed from Warsop Main Pit Top later the same month, so this moth has probably been overlooked in Nottinghamshire for a number of years.
