Cypress Pug
I had this Cypress Pug in my garden trap last night at Beenham, Berks. This is the first one that I have seen in 12 years of trapping. I was wondering, how common is this usually in the UTB area?
Hello Derek, here in Bucks we have 20+ records of this adventive species and it seems quite well established now in the southern part of the county. I don't know what the situation is in Berkshire but as it seems to have been working its way up from the south I imagine there will be at least some previous records.
