Description:

Description: Fekenham Wylde Moor, Worcestershire. Although a fairly common and widespread moth this was the first record for the county. One of five specimens quickly found in a the same area. Returning two days later I counted 32 individuals at rest on tree trunks. The females differ from males in having a light patch in the wing basal area (but so far have not co-operated to allow a photograph!!!). Date: 28 July 2013, 17:04.
