Hi truthsayers,
Check out this site:
http://www.uklepidoptera.co.uk/
The search may be a bit taxing; however, the pictures and associated IDs look quite exhaustive.
Hope that helps.

Can you post a picture? That would help. Or, if you can't figure out the exact Genus species, use the family or order name if you can figure that out.
