Yorkshire Status: Rare and local resident.

Many of the records are of leaf-mines. Mines can be confused with Phyllonorycter dubitella and the moths should be bred out to confirm identification.

Sutton & Beaumont, 1989: Recorded sparsely from all five vice-counties but there are few recent records.

Mine: Moth needs to be reared and, in some cases, possibly dissected.

Recorded in 44 (22%) of 200 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1859.
Last Recorded in 2023.
