| Status:
Resident and possible migrant. Distribution and
Abundance: Fairly common.
Primary Habitat:
General occurrence.
Flight
Period: Recorded in all months from June to
September with most records in September.
Observations:
The first record in the 1970s was not repeated
until 1991. After this the moth seems to have become
established in the county and is now regularly recorded
from a variety of habitats; probably being more
widespread than present records suggest. My own field
records show that I have seen the species for the last
six years. It has been taken at the static Pitsford light
traps for the past four years.
L.O.N.: Unrecorded.
First
Record: 1975, Deanshanger school grounds,
Brown.
