Broad-barred
White Hecatera
bicolorata (Hufnagel, 1766)  |
Status
.....Although described as being found
across much of the UK, Broad-barred White seems to be
uncommon in eastern parts of Nottinghamshire and indeed, most county
records seem to be from suburban locations. We often
record them nectaring at Valerian during the early
evening and they do come to MV light. The larva is found on Hawkweeds
Hieracium sp and grateful thanks go to Sandra Parkin for
supplying the photographs below. |
