General comments:

Absent?
Griffith (1884) listed this species for the Sandridge area (not mapped). Foster (1937) adds 'Bushey Heath (Barraud)'. Barraud was certainly collecting around the turn of the twentieth century and was a contemporary of Gibbs. He was apparently still active in 1918, but I have no trace of him after that year; the record was most likely made prior to the First World War. There are no reports from Middlesex.
