Often described as common in the UK, but certainly not in Nottinghamshire.
The national distribution of Tasgius melanarius does indeed
cover a wide band which stretches across the UK from East Anglia to
Wales and includes many Midlands counties. Nottinghamshire lies just
north of this band, but there are records from the very south-east UK,
as far north as eastern Scotland. Rather interestingly, the six recent
Nottinghamshire records form something of a band across central parts of
the county, with records coming from Sherwood Forest, Clumber Park,
Kirton Wood and Market Warsop. |
