General comments:
Immigrant.

Our only valid record is of a presumed immigrant example in a garden in Harpenden on 31st May 1992. It turned up along with several other immigrant species after a warm south-easterly wind. An undated report from Brocket Park cannot be substantiated and must be treated as an identification error.

Retained Specimen / Photograph will be Required.
