Moths that fuse your mind!

Just spent several hours going through micro moths I photographed over the last few months and never got round to id'ing. Tonight i got down to it with these results. Photos from the top. First name, then number in taxanomic order, then Herts status and finally number of records of this moth in Herts
Cydia pomonella. Codling moth #1261 widespread 381 records
Eudonia truncicolella #1340 rare 4 records
Scoparia pyralella #1333 widespread 186 records
Eudonia pallida #1336 local/rare 12 records.
Tortrix viridana (Green oak tree Tortrix) #1033 widespread 404 records
Morophaga choragella #196 common 39 records
Ypsolopha mucronella #451 uncommon 12 records
Phtheochroa rugosana #925 widespread 79 records.
Basically these are here for micro experts to confirm, or more likely, put me correct on errant identification. All comments welcome.
