Cream-spot Tiger

Widespread and regularly recorded, if usually in small numbers, in a band from Porlock to Yeovil.&nbsp; Absent from most of Exmoor and very few records north of Shapwick, where it appears unlikely to be resident.

Wood Tiger

This always seems to have been a scarce and local species.&nbsp; It has been lost from the Quantocks (last record 1970).&nbsp; On Exmoor it is regularly recorded from Haddon Hill as a by-product of butterfly transect recording there, with a scattering of records from elsewhere.&nbsp; On Mendip it occurs in a cluster of nearby species-rich grassland sites - Westbury Beacon, Draycott Sleights, Ubley Warren and Priddy Mineries.

Garden Tiger

A moth in decline nationally.&nbsp; The Somerset picture is not quite so clear-cut as it is still regularly and widely recorded, though it appears to be retreating towards core areas and becoming absent from others - it is in particular rarely found on or adjacent to the Mendips.
