.....A single attracted to MV light run by Martin Gray
in his Broadholme garden in May 2019, seems to be the first county
record and there have been further records from the same site. One of a number of very similar species, which need
determination by dissection to confirm ID. Recently attracted to light
at Elkesley by Paul Coombes in September 2024.
A note on Broadholme records:
Broadholme is in vice county VC56 of Nottinghamshire (which is covered
by www.eakringbirds.com), but not in the administrative county of
Nottinghamshire on which the county's moth records are based by the
county macromoth recorder. However, micromoth records from Broadholme are officially recognised by
both the county micromoth recorder and Butterfly
Conservation, as being genuine Nottinghamshire records. |
