The status of this beetle in Nottinghamshire seems to be a strange
one and it has never really been recorded with any great frequency.
There are a number of records from the Clumber Park and Sherwood Forest
areas and a cluster of records from a well recorded section of the
lower Trent Valley (Dutton, A.). The
somewhat isolated mid-county record, originates from the Nottinghamshire
Wildlife Trust's reserve at Mansey Common near Eakring.
Across the UK, Grynobius planus occurs quite widely, but
confirmed records on the NBN Atlas create a rather patchy distribution
with numerous records concentrated from East Anglia, the Midlands,
south-easter counties and from Wales. |
