Chocolate Tip Clostera curtula (Linnaeus, 1758)
Status .....Not recorded in Nottinghamshire until 2007. There were further records in 2008, since when this moth has further colonised the county. However, this one trapped at Bevercotes Pit Wood, would suggest that it is now well established and continuing its spread into the north of the county.
