Orange
Underwing Archiearis parthenias (Linnaeus,
1761)  |
| Status
..... Thought at one time to be something of an uncommon moth in
Nottinghamshire, but has become increasingly well recorded in recent
years. The
moth's stronghold is probably in the wider Sherwood Forest
area, where it can be seen flying around the tops of
Birches during the day, often flying lower in the afternoon. But it is
by no means restricted to Sherwood Forest and the moth can be found
almost anywhere that Birch dominates the habitat. |
