Phyllonorycter
platani (Staudinger,
1870)  |
| Status
.....Phyllonorycter platani appeared
in London in 1989 and was noted in Leicestershire in
2006. Our first record came from Worksop in 2007, which
may well be the first Nottinghamshire record. It has
increased since, but at the moment appears to be confined
to west Nottinghamshire. Searching the leaves of London
Plane trees in any urban areas, will almost certainly
reveal the leaf mines to be common. |
