Cloaked Carpet



I was a bit surprised to find three of these in my trap this morning at woodland NE of Witney. I wonder what the current status of the species is in VC23?

  1. I would also have been surpised as well! There is a single historical record and two from the extreme southeast of the county, in 1998 and 2000. Three in one night suggests residency - very interesting. Can you give me the locality (privately, by email) please.

  2. What a turn-up for the books! Not known at all from Bucks and only about a dozen records for Berks!
