Celypha striana

([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775)1063 / 49.161

General comments:
Widespread but very locally distributed.

In some arable areas, the moth may be less common because of the use of weed-killers that eliminate the dandelions needed by the caterpillars.

Recorded in 36 (88%) of 41 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1890.
Last Recorded in 2024.
