Discovered new to Nottinghamshire in late October
2024, when leaf mines were found on the fallen leaves of Grey Poplar
Populus canescens at Ollerton Pit Woods, adjacent to where
Phyllonorycter comparella was also found new to the county, two
years previously in 2022. Ectoedemia turbidella will no doubt
have a limited distribution in Nottinghamshire, to those sites where
Grey Poplar is present. The larvae initially mines the leaf petiole,
before moving into the leaf where it creates a small blotch mine. |
