Notes:
Nationally scarce (Nb) in damp grassland and moorland in parts of southern England and western Scotland, where distinctly less common than P. myllerana. In Hampshire chiefly in the New Forest, and also found at Ampfield Wood and Botley Wood, but very rare in the north of the county, where there is just one old record. Not recorded from the Isle of Wight to date. Wingspan 9-12 mm. Day-flying. Very similar to P. myllerana, which see for difference. Larva feeds on Skullcap and Lesser Skullcap.
