Nutmeg Anarta trifolii (Hufnagel,
1766) ....
Formerly known as Discestra trifoli ![](http://www.eakringbirds.com/eakringbirds5/textbanner04.jpg) |
Status
.....Fairly regular at MV light in a
range of habitats and quite common in urban areas. The
distribution of this moth in Nottinghamshire is
distinctly westerly, being rarely recorded from sites
east of the Trent Valley. However, there is no reason why
this moth should not occur. |
