Pine
Carpet Pennithera firmata (Hübner, 1822) .... Formerly known as Thera
firmata |
Status
.....Common around the Pine forested
areas of Sherwood Forest, where it can turn up at MV
light in large numbers. Should be common around the
Mansfield area of Nottinghamshire, where commercial
forestry has no doubt aided this moth's local range. |
