Lempke's Gold Spot

Still a local rarity but numbers appear to be increasing, I caught this Lempke's Gold Spot last night. Easily confused with the Gold Spot, it tends to be more brightly orange brown coloured with more distinct cross lines and the inner white blotch, near the wing tip, is square ended rather than pointed as in Gold Spot.
