Common and widespread across Kent, this moth can only really be confused with Barred Hook-tip, which differs in having a darker central cross band with usually only one small central forewing spot. On Oak Hook-tip there are usually two forewing spots, one being larger than the other.
Grade 2 — adults can be confused with other species, so good quality photographs or possibly a specimen will be required if the recorder is not familiar with the species.
