.....An uncommon moth in Nottinghamshire with just a
handful of recent records. There are records for Bestwood in 2013
(Tobin, S.), Newark in 2006 (Atkinson,
D.) and Broadholme in 2012 (Gray, M.).
Our thanks go to Martin Gray, for kindly 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. As such, no Broadholme records appear in
any county reports, but they are officially recognised by Butterfly
Conservation as being Nottinghamshire records. |
