An intriguing moth - spent some time searching for candidates yet to no avail  - will check again at home - would also stick to Pyralidae. |

most certainly Phycitinae, but sorry I can't help further. Not a UK sp for sure. BW Tristan |

Bingo! Euzophera lunulella (Phycitinae). Biology unknown. 15 more spp. in Europe. Parenti, Plate 137, fig. 8. |
