A common and
well distributed Woodlouse over most of the UK. It is
without doubt, considerably under-recorded in
Nottinghamshire. Despite the scarcity of county records, Porcellionides
pruinosus is likely to be encountered within the
manure heaps of most Nottinghamshire farms, but it has
occurred within the grounds of two sites with no obvious
links to manure. Despite the scarity of county records, Porcellionides
pruinosus will very likely be encountered within the
manure heaps of many Nottinghamshire farms. The
individual photographed was found at Tug Bridge Farm near
Eakring in December 2015, just a few weeks after one was
found at Brackenhurst near Southwell (Heeney, W. and
Skinner, M. . Lugg, K. and Lugg, B.). |
