Northern
Winter Moth
Operophtera
fagata (Scharfenberg, 1805)  |
| Status
.....Seems to be the commonest of the
two Winter Moth species at Sherwood Forest CP, based on
recent trapping. Probably common throughout much of
Nottinghamshire, but the evidence based on the
distribution map would suggest that this moth is uncommon
along the Trent Valley. This could also be down to the
lack of recording moths during the late Autumn and Winter
months. |
