Burnet
Companion Euclidia
glyphica (Linnaeus, 1758) |
Status
.....Formerly quite uncommon in Nottinghamshire, but
has increased enormously over the past few years and should be expected
in suitable habitat across the county. This day-flying moth has showed
one of the greatest range expansions in recent years, spreading from
south-west Nottinghamshire. It is probably present on most former
colliery sites, grassy, flower rich meadows and woodland rides. Recorded
for the first time in over a century at Sherwood Forest during 2021. |
