Muslin Footman

Muslin Footman Nudaria mundana (Linnaeus, 1761)
Status .....Rare and restricted in Nottinghamshire, with the only recent records coming from Market Warsop in July 2021, Misterton in the very north of the county (Lee, P.) and from the Theives Wood/Ravenshead area. The NBN Atlas lists a series of records from a single Ravenshead locality for consecutive years between 1994 and 1997 (per Butterfly Conservation), but the only reliable record from that area, may be one trapped at Thieves Wood in July 2009 (Wright, S. and Osbourne, J.).
