General comments:
Local resident in Hertfordshire.

All modern records are confined to the chalk along the north-west boundary, where it may rest undetected in a few more sites than the map indicates. Away from this area all reports probably refer to wandering adults looking for new territory.

Recorded in 15 (37%) of 41 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1876.
Last Recorded in 2022.
