Coleophora
flavipennella (Duponchel,
1843)  |
| Status
.....Presently an uncommon species in Nottinghamshire,
but there must be a large element of under-recording. As with many Coleophora moths,
the adults often require dissection to obtain an identification, meaning
that they are generally left well alone by recorders. But Coleophora
identification is usually much easier by the larval cases. |
