Delplanqueia inscriptella
Thyme Knot-horn
PyralidaeABH 62.0151 B&F 1462aOnly separated from D. dilutella in 2015. Like that species, it is associated with thyme. Only one record, from Brean Down in 2021. Almost certainly this does not tell the whole story, as it is likely some of the historic records of D. dilutella refer to this species, and undoubtedly it is under-recorded because a valid record requires dissection.
