Notes:
A rare Red Data Book species in oak and beech woodland. There are post-1980 records from Essex, Kent, East Sussex, Hampshire, south Wiltshire, Devon and Cornwall, but the species is very local and scarce throughout its range. In Hampshire most records come from the New Forest where it is now scarce, elsewhere annual on Wickham Common in recent years. Not recorded from the Isle of Wight to date. Wingspan male 14-19 mm, female 16-22 mm. Larva feeds on Oak and Beech, over-wintering in a cocoon.
