Spatalistis bifasciana

(Hübner, 1787)1034 / 49.058

General comments:
Widespread but rather local.

The absence of reports from the north of the county is interesting since the two presumed main foodplants of Buckthorn and Alder Buckthorn are not uncommon in that area. In other parts of Britain, Dogwood is also used.

Recorded in 11 (27%) of 41 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1890.
Last Recorded in 2022.
