General comments:
Local resident

The foodplant is not uncommon in the county and so the moth may be under-recorded. There is no reason to suppose that it is not widely distributed, though it may always be only locally so.

Recorded in 10 (24%) of 41 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1901.
Last Recorded in 2017.
