I was just tying a few flies and this little fella just landed by the side of me and the camera was at hand so here it is. Strange looking thing.

Anyone know the name of this one?

Possibly the Brown House Moth Hofmannophila pseudospretella. If it is keep it away from your flytying stuff and check your clothes for caterpillars. According to my book they like various dry materials including dried fruit and fabrics

Hofmannophila pseudospretella - BugGuide.Net

Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths)

'The larva eats wool, feathers, grains, seeds, dried fruit, wine bottle corks, carpets, upholstery and leather. A fully grown larva can be 20 mm long with a shiny white body and a brown head. It pupates in a tough torpedo-shaped cocoon in the material it has been eating.'

Carried it in full, then carry it out empty.

Thanks very much but i dont think its going to be anymore hassle. My cat killed it after i had the photos It done the wrong thing. It flew straight at the cat and that was that. I think it looked at my tyings and committed suicide
My window has been open for a bit so ill be checking my gear

Thanks again
