Green oak tortrix moth (Tortrix viridana)


Fairly unmistakable being the only green Tortrix in the British Isles. Inhabiting oak woodland, it can become a pest, the abundant larvae sometimes completely defoliating trees. There is only one potential similar cream-bordered green pea Earias clorana which has a white border to the wing and rests with its wings higher a more 'tent like' posture.
