.....Typically a moth of damp heathland and moorland in
the northern half of the UK, a Light Knot Grass recorded by Mike Hill and Tom
Shields at Netherfield Lagoons on May 24th 2019, was the first Nottinghamshire record since
the publication of Carr's book in 1916 and occurred as part of an
unusual influx of individuals to sites in South Yorks, Lincolnshire and
Leicestershire in late May 2019. Remarkably, a second individual was
trapped a few weeks later, at Barnby, Newark on June 30th by Oliver
Beacock. |
