Notes:
Common often abundant, in a wide range of habitats, including gardens, hedgerows, roadside verges, woodland, heathland and moorland throughout the British Isles. Widespread and common in Hampshire and on the Isle of Wight. Wingspan 46-54 mm. Quite variable, with occasional very dark individuals, but so ubiquitous the species soon becomes easily recognisable. Larva feeds on various grasses, including Common Couch, Cock's-foot and Tufted Hair-grass.
