Status
.....Distributed rather locally across southern
counties of the UK and previously unrecorded in Nottinghamshire, until
one was attracted to MV light at Broadholme on the Nottinghamshire
border with Lincolnshire in 2018 (Gray, M.).
Certainly a surprising additon to the county list.
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. |
