The true status of this moth in Nottinghamshire was until recently somewhat
vague, but it appears that Nottinghamshire's first records were of
singles taken at Misson Carr in August 2009
(Radford, J.T.). More recently, this species was attracted to MV light at Shirebrook Pit Wood in August 2021
(Ashley, A.
Coombes, P. and Morton, D.). In view of Wild Carrot being the preferred
larval foodplant, it would be reasonable to expect many former colliery
sites to hold this moth, but there appear to be no other modern records. |
