Common Marble
Syricoris lacunana
The adult Common Marble is a small tortricid moth found in gardens, hedgerows, woodland edges, and grassy places across much of Europe. It rests by day with its marbled brown-and-cream forewings blending into dry stems, bark, and leaf litter, then flies mainly at dusk and night. Adults may visit flowers for fluids and are also attracted to light. A notable feature is its variable wing pattern, which can make individuals look surprisingly different from one another.
