White-spot Purple

One of a number of <i>Eriocrania</i> species mining birch leaves in spring, only identifiable in the field from tenanted mines.&nbsp; As a result it is likely to be considerably under-recorded.&nbsp; Most records are from Exmoor and the Quantocks; there are a couple from east Somerset, but unlike some of its relatives it has yet to be recorded from the plentiful birch in the area's post-industrial sites.

Common Oak Purple

A widespread and common miner of oaks across the county, gaps in distribution no doubt reflecting local under-recording.

Small Hazel Purple

A scarce species mining Hazel.&nbsp; Its few records to date mostly come from high-quality calcareous grassland sites with scrub.

Paracrania chrysolepidella
