General comments:
Extremely local resident.

Reported damage to needles in a plantation of Abies nordmanniana near Harpenden was examined by Chris Shortall on 4th June 2015. Adults were found and later named as this species. There is a small resident population at the Bramfield Woods complex in mid-Hertfordshire. We also have a single example in a light trap in West Ealing in June 2022.

Recorded in 3 (7%) of 41 10k Squares.
