Orthosia miniosa

| Status .....It seems highly unlikely that this moth has ever really been perminently resident in Nottinghamshire and it has declined generally from many UK sites over the past number of years, with many recent records thought to refer to migrants from the continent. The one illustrated, was trapped at MV light and photographed by Tim Sexton at Attenborough NR in April 2019 and is thought to be the first VC56 record since the late 1800's. | ||
