Grey Alder Case-bearer

Fairly common in Somerset and usually recorded as a larval case; although found on other plants nationally, the Somerset records are all from alder or hazel.&nbsp; A concentration of records around Shapwick, and others around Bath and Taunton.<br>

Least Case-bearer

The larvae of this under-recorded moth feed on heather.&nbsp; There are only three records of this moth, one relatively recent record apiece from Exmoor and the Quantocks (where the moth may well be widespread in suitable habitat) and one pre-1906 record from Leigh Woods.<br>

Pale Birch Case-bearer

A moth of uncertain status within the county.&nbsp; A 1992 record to light at Berrow, and two pre-1945 records from Batcombe and Shapwick.&nbsp; The larvae feed on birches and alders, both of which are locally frequent here.<br>
