Euides basilinea (Germar, 1821) 
Whether this is an uncommon Delphicid in Nottinghamshire, is difficult to tell, as their recording has always been somewhat limited over the years. There are certainly, a wide range of species awaiting discovery in the county, including Euides basilinea, which has been only recorded from Netherfield Lagoons and Misson Carr. It is associated with Phragmites, so should be found at many wetland sites.
