Anthocomus
fasciatus (Linnaeus,
1758) ![]() |
||
An extremely attractive but small beetle, Anthocomus fasciatus is just about at the northern limit of its UK range in Nottinghamshire. It is found at well vegetated sites and there are a number of records along the Severn and Trent Valleys through the Midlands. There are a number of recent records for Leicestershire (per NatureSpot) but we know of just two from Nottinghamshire. The one pictured, was found and photographed by Tim Sexton, at the NWT's Attenborough NR in early May 2019. | ||
