General comments:
All of the Coleophora species in our area are under-recorded; naming most requires either finding the larvae or dissecting the genitalia of the adults (or both!). For this reason, notes made here are deliberately short, but will be updated on a species by species basis as information surfaces.

Widespread, but local. On Orache (Atriplex spp.) and Sea Purslane (Halimione portulacoides). Perhaps a new arrival here. Noted first at Barnet in 2007 and then remaining reports are all from 2018 onwards.

	Determination by Genitalia Examination Required

	Case: A good quality photo or specimen of the case and plant/pabulum and gen. det. of bred moth is required.
