Distribution and Abundance: Rare.

Primary Habitat: General occurrence.

Flight Period: Recorded in June and July.

Record: 3 June 1991 Buckingham Thick Copse (A. Warne).

Observations: The 1991 record was of a moth found in a malaise trap. Due to the paucity of migrant records in May and June 1991 and its inland location it was believed at the time that the moth may have been an over wintered offspring from a previous years migrant. There are two earlier records:-
13 September 1973 (larva) Northampton (K. Baskcomb) and 23 July 1977 Kettering (J. Ward). The 1973 Northampton larva produced a moth in July 1974 and the 1977 Kettering moth was taken in an actinic light trap in the town.

First Record: 1973, Baskcomb.
