| A common
ground beetle, but often preferring a damper habitat than
the similar Leistus ferrugineus. Our first and
only record of Leistus terminatus, came
when one appeared at MV light in an area of the Sherwood
Forest CP, being the first record for the Sherwood Forest NNR since the early 1900's.
The one in the lower two photographs was found at the
Sherwood Forest CP in July 2012, but there has been a recent record from
Clumber Park, showed in the top two photographs, with the specimen being
provided by Nick and Samantha Brownley. |
