Monochroa lutulentella
(Zeller, 1839)  |
||
| Either very rare and restricted in Nottinghamshire, or just considerably under-recorded and ignored by recorders, because of its lack of significant markings and effectively being just a dull, brown featureless Gelechiid. There are just three known locations for this moth in VC56, with records from Misson Carr, Broadholme and Besthorpe NR. Grateful thanks to Martin Gray for confirmation the identification by gen det. | ||
