    Pyrrhia umbra

    NoctuidaeABH 73.07 B&F 2399

    Scarce, not recorded every year, and seems to be in decline.  Most frequently appears on the coast between Burnham-on-Sea and Clevedon, and around Minehead, with occasional wanderers elsewhere.  If this is a resident species it must be in some danger of extinction.

    Adult Verification Grade: 1
