Grass moth
The white grass moth called the Satin Grass Veneer, Crambus perlella, can reflect as glistening white and usually doesn't have much marking other than slight pleating at the end of the wing. An exception is the quaintly-named variation var. warringtonellus which has brown lines branching at the rear. UK flight time Jun-Aug. Wingspan 21-28mm and length 12-18mm.
Grass moth Crambus silvella
The above is thought to be the Wood Grass Veneer, Crambus silvella, because of its large, white, slightly rounded streak and the second white rear patch which extends beyond the first semi-vertical line. UK flight time Jul-Aug. Wingspan 24mm. The similar Inlaid Grass-veneer, Crambus pascuella, also has a thick white bar but less-rounded and the second white blob stops at the downward line.
Grass moth Thought to be the Waste Grass-veneer, Pediasia contaminella, 20-30mm wingspan and UK flight time of Jul-Aug.
