Only recently recorded as new to Nottinghamshire, when a male was
attracted to a pheremone trap for Silver Y on 14/08/2024 at a West
Bridgford garden (Freestone, R.).
Nationally, Gypsy Moth became extinct as a breeding species by 1900 and
occurred here only as an occasional migrant to southern counties, but
became established in the London area during the 1990's, even surviving
an eradication attempt. |
