Notes:
Local in bogs, damp heathland and mosses throughout much of Scotland, northern England, south-western England and Wales. Not recorded in Hampshire or on the Isle of Wight to date. Wingspan 20-23 mm. Readily separable from C. permutatella, C. osthelderi and C. speculalis by the absence of a cross-line dividing the median longitudinal stripe; C. furcatellus has uniformly coloured, mahogany-brown forewing with narrower, dull white median longitudinal stripe [Bradley]. Larva feeds on various grasses and various mosses.
