A small
reddish-brown Woodlouse, similar in appearance to Trichoniscus
pusillus and usually found under stones in wet/damp
locations. Recent research has discovered that Trichoniscoides
albidus was originally found new to Nottinghamshire
in 1975, when recorded from West Bridgford (Rundle, A.J.). This was found to precede records from two
sites along the River Trent at Farndon near Newark (Whiteley, D.) in January 2016, which at the time were thought to represent
the first records for the Nottinghamshire. It was
subsequently found in flood debris along the bank of the
River Trent at Stoke Bardolph in February 2017 (Pendleton , T.A. and Pendleton,
D.T.). |
