Pug Eupithecia satyrata (Hübner, [1813]) |
Status
..... There are three subspecies of this
Pug occupying various parts of the UK, but only Eupithecia
satyrata ssp. satyrata has been recorded in
Nottinghamshire and only from two sites. The moth below
was trapped at the Idle Valley NR in July 2018, by
members of the Lound Moth Group and is only the second
Nottinghamshire record of recent years, although it was
not officially accepted by the county recorder. |
