Species Account

Not known in Kent and presumed extinct in the rest of the UK. It was previously only found in North Somerset up towards Yorkshire but with a very much western tendency. Perhaps one which could re-colonise from the near continent...

Record Verification

Grade 1 adults are generally distinctive and unlikely to be confused with other species, but records outside documented range or flight period may require photos.
