Agonopterix curvipunctosa

    Powdered Buff

    DepressariidaeABH 32.02 B&F 711

    A national rarity and a sand-dune specialist.  Recorded from the Berrow and Burnham-on-Sea areas, with a long sequence of records from one Burnham-on-Sea garden, 2000-2015.  Not recorded since but might well persist in the area.  Unlikely to occur elsewhere in the county; a 1952 record from Bickenhall in the Blackdowns is surely of a dispersing/migratory individual.
