    Scarce, but probably under-recorded.  Associated with oak, it seems not to wander to gardens from its woodland home.  Most county records are from the Blackdowns, where the woods have been relatively well-surveyed, and it might be present in poorly-recorded wooded areas such as the Exmoor valley woodlands and the east Somerset woods.
