General comments:
Widespread but local resident.

This distinctive summer season moth is unlikely to be confused with other species and in general will be found throughout the two counties - though it shows clear signs of avoiding the urban zone. A significant number of old records in the map might suggest a loss, though it could equally represent lack of recording effort in at least some of these places. The small second generation of adults indicated in the flight chart has been observed from 2002 to 2022 and is apparently a new phenomenon.
