General comments
Absent. Former vagrant.

Nationally, other than a population associated with the Kent/Sussex coastal zone, this moth is confined to the south-east of Britain, within a corridor defined in the west by a line drawn between the Humber and the Severn and in the east by a line from Great Yarmouth to the Isle of Wight. The only records from our area are from New Barnet in 1919 and 1920.
