Usually described as being rare inland, this record of
Odontomyia tigrina (more commonly known as the Black Colonel) from
Netherfield in June 2019, seems likely to be a potential first for Nottinghamshire.
There is a 1925 record from the Newark area listed on the NBN Atlas, but
the record is undated, rather vague in that the grid reference is just
SK75 and has no recorder or determiner attached to it. Our thanks go to
Peter Smith for allowing us to use his photographs below, taken during a
very brief encounter with the species at Netherfield Ash Lagoons in June
2019. |
