The only Phyllonorycter I can find with black wedges against cross-lines is P. trifasciella, but this one still does not look quite right. This tiny moth was potted as it sat on the edge of a Crab Apple leaf as I looked for leaf mines to photograph. The trouble is there is no honeysuckle this far up the garden. Any thoughts please? Jean

Thanks Steve. Odd about the foodplant though, it didn't look as if it had journeyed far
