.....Appears to be a rather rare moth in
Nottinghamshire, purely based on the apparent lack of records. We know
of just the one recent record, concerning one attracted to MV light at
Broadholme in 2013, on the Nottinghamshire border with neighbouring
Lincolnshire.
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. However, micromoth records from Broadholme are officially recognised by
both the county micromoth recorder and Butterfly
Conservation, as being genuine Nottinghamshire records. |
