.....Another moth for which Nottinghamshire seems to be
largely devoid of records. The only known record we have, is from
Broadholme on the border of Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire, when one
was attracted to MV light on July 22nd 2011. Our grateful thanks go to
Martin Gray, for providing us with the photograph below.
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. |
