Very rare in Nottinghamshire and seemingly last recorded from Newark
in2004 (Atkinson, D.). There is an
undated record from Bunny (Marchant, M.)
but this moth has remained on most people's wanted list. The larvae feed
on Elm (Ulmus sp), so it is perhaps surprising that it has not
done as well as some other Elm feeding species. Thanks to Andy Adcock
for allowing the use of his photograph of one of two Carlton records
(below left) and to Tim Sexton for
the photograph below right, which was recorded from Rutland Water in July
2021. |
