Rare Moth In England

Wallpaper Description:

An incredible 348 moth species were found at Roudsea Wood and Mosses SSSI in Cumbria, while Langley Wood SSSI in Wiltshire — not previously known as an important site for moths — supported no fewer than 15 of our most rare and threatened species.

Dr Tom Tew, Chief Scientist for Natural England, said: "Moths, by their nature, are elusive, so the findings of this comprehensive study into the diversity and distribution of moths in our woodlands provides an important scientific record. The findings also demonstrate how important these woodland habitats are for some of our most threatened species of moth, such as the Dark Crimson Underwing and the Triangle. Moths, like their daytime cousins butterflies, play an important role in England's biodiversity and the pollination of plants and flowers. We have been given a rare glimpse of the habits of these night-time beauties and this data will enhance future habitat protection."
