Grey Arches Polia nebulosa (Hufnagel,
1766)  |
Status
.....This is a fairly common at Sherwood
Forest, but Nottinghamshire records stretch from the
north-west of Nottingham, up to Eaton and Gamston Woods
near Retford, to Misson in the very north of the county.
Many of these sites lie on Sherwood Sandstone. The larva have been found
over-wintering under loose bark. |
