Common
Marbled Carpet Dysstroma truncata (Hufnagel, 1767) ....... Formerly known as Chloroclysta truncata |
Status
.....Very often a common moth, which
shows considerable variation in markings and
colouration. However, the form with the large tawny brown patch on the
forewing is by far the most common and regularly seen. Seems to be either totally absent or scarce,
south-east of the River Trent, which may be down to lack of recording
from that part of the county. |
