16.001 Yponomeuta evonymella - Bird-cherry Ermine
Larval webs on Bird-cherry. Has been recorded on a number of occasions in North Antrim. Yponomeuta species can tricky to tell apart as adults, though this species is one of the easiest by having five rows of black dots. Recording larvae on the foodplant is the safest means of identification.
