| Brindled Pug Eupithecia abbreviata |
| Status:
Resident. Distribution and Abundance: Common. Primary Habitat: Woodland. Flight Period: Single brooded in April and May. Observations: The Fineshade Rothamsted light trap running in woodland in the 1990s produced a total of thirty-three moths, three of which were the melanic ab. hirschkei. I have found the melanism at Grafton Park Wood and Geddington Chase to be rather greater than this. L.O.N.: 1907. Many localities. Rather common. First Record: 1902, Victoria County History. |
