Gillmeria pallidactyla

Species account from Moths of Glamorgan
(Gilmore, Slade & Stewart, 2009):

Flies from June to August. Certainly more widespread and abundant than the number of records would indicate. It feeds on a Yarrow, Sneezewort and Tansy, and unlike Platyptilia ochrodactyla can often be found some distance from its foodplant.
