Notes: Common in broad-leaved woodland, scrub, parks, gardens and moorland, throughout the British Isles. Wingspan 40-46mm. Diagnostic field character is the two small satellite dots close to the reniform stigmata. Larva feeds on the foliage of broad-leaved trees and shrubs, and, as it approaches maturity, on various insects, including aphids and the larvae of other moth species.
