Haworth's Pug - resident at this site in the 1940's, I rediscovered it here in 2003
Eudonia pallida - surely now resident at this site
Small Emerald - another Traveler's-Joy feeder
Cochylis roseana - a Teasel feeding beauty
Hellinsia osteodactylus - I recorded the first for VC55 from here in 2005
Isophrictis striatella - I recorded the first for VC55 from my garden in 2002
Brown-line Bright-eye - smart
