Very much a moth with an unusual distribution across much of southern
England, with the main concentration of records coming from Norfolk,
Suffolk, Berkshire, up through Huntingdonshire and Leicestershire, but
seemingly falling just short of Nottinghamshire. It was already on
the Nottinghamshire species list, before the one below was caught in
late June 2025.
There are also
records from counties lying west of London, across to Somerset and
Gloucestershire. The individual illustrated below, was recorded at MV
light in the Red Hill area of Eakring, on a night of high moth
activity. |
