Coleophora saturatella

Stainton, 1850545 / 37.042

General comments:
All of the Coleophora species in our area are under-recorded; naming most requires either finding the larvae or dissecting the genitalia of the adults (or both!). For this reason, notes made here are deliberately short, but will be updated on a species by species basis as information surfaces.
Local and scarce. On Broom, Dyer's Greenweed and Petty Whin.

Retained Specimen / Photograph will be Required.

Case: A good quality photo or specimen of the case and plant/pabulum is required.

Recorded in 4 (10%) of 41 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1861.
Last Recorded in 2019.
