Is probably more widespread than records suggest as its flight period is usually after people have stopped
trapping for the year. Most of the records are from Dungeness. Also, its status reflects the number of
adult moths recorded but when sweeping the sallows at Dungeness for larva this can be the commonest
species.
Earliest date. 20th October (01). Latest date. 5th January (02). Max. 14 at Dungeness in November
94. |
