Pistol Case-bearer

Formerly fairly frequently recorded (by coleophorid standards), mostly from the western Mendips and around Taunton, but it was last seen in Somerset in 2013.&nbsp; Occasionally found at light, but most records have been of larval cases on blackthorn Prunus spinosa and apple Malus domestica; other, related foodplants have been used elsewhere in the country.

Red-clover Case-bearer

Formerly fairly common in the north of the county, especially coastally, but never recorded south of Burnham-on-Sea.&nbsp; May be in decline, as there is only one record since 2006.&nbsp;

Meadow Case-bearer

One of the commoner Coleophoridae in the county, although there are no records from some quite large areas.&nbsp; Most, perhaps all, records of the moth are to adults attracted to light, with none found as larval cases on the foodplant, white clover Trifolium repens.
