It's been great to start the new year off with a new species. To some perhaps not the most exciting photo but I think the several neat little holes found in the seed pods of Mugwort can belong to only one species - the Mugwort Case-bearer (Coleophora artemisicolella).
I've found these at both Cromwell Bottom and Elland Bridge and the feeding signs are said to be diagnostic.
