Golden Twin-spot Chrysodeixis chalcites (Esper, [1803]) 
There are currently no known records of this moth from Nottinghamshire. However, with the increasing frequency of a number of formerly very rare migrant species reaching ever further inland over the past few years, almost anything can be expected and Golden Twin-spot is certainly one to look out for in the coming years.
