Yorkshire Status: Very rare migrant

This rare migrant was first recorded in the UK in 2001. Since then, like Small Marbled, it has become increasingly common. Our first record was at Easington (Spurn) on 29/7/2017. Since then we have had another seven records, all in VC61 apart from one in VC63 at Cudworth in 2019. At the current rate, this is another migrant species which could become established in the south or south-east of the UK.

Retained Specimen / Photograph will be Required.
