Standfussiana lucernea
Species account (old)
[...] Durham lepidopterists have been [...] fortunate, as it has recently been 'discovered' in some abundance. I. Findlay now takes it regularly in Upper Teesdale in the Rothamsted trap, first at Middleton-in.Teesdale where it was first operated, and now at Langdon Beck, Forest-in-Teesdale He also finds it quite commonly in Sun Wood at High Force, where it readily comes to a small Heath trap. K. Dover found it flying freely during daylight along the rock face of Scutten Hill Quarry, Westgate, in Weardale on 13 August 1979 and R. Woods has found it not far away at Crooks Altar in August 1980 and 1981. At this site also the moth flies in daylight when the sun shines on the bare rock face of the quarry. [...]
