Euchromius ocellea (Haworth, 1811)
Status .....Nottinghamshire's first (and for many years) only record, came from Eakring on September 12th 2006 (Pendleton, T.A. and Pendleton, D.T.), occurring on an evening of notable migrant activity and arrivals. A second county record followed some years later, with one taken at light from Ravenshead on September 20th 2024 (McGeever, D.), which was part of a large influx of this moth into eastern counties of the UK at the time.
