- care required in the identification process, as confusion with similar species is likely - quality photographs required. ID pointers: Local specimens previously recorded have been of the Melanic form so could easily be confused with other Highflyer species. Generally told by slightly longer, relatively narrower forewing. Sometimes a paler, whitish-grey central cross-band. Reddish forms are distinctive.
Distribution: Current status unknown but very few records, indicating it is either rare or under recorded. Plenty of suitable moorland habitat where it was recorded from in the 50’s & 60’s. Only 7 20th century records.
