  Sorry - no images available for this moth.

Species account from Moths of Glamorgan
(Gilmore, Slade & Stewart, 2009):

Flying from late April to August with the peak period in late July. The larvae feed on Heather, and it is mainly found in upland areas on moorland, hill sides, in forestry clearings, and on the Gower Peninsula. Elsewhere it is local, although records from Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan may indicate that cultivated heathers in gardens are being used as foodplants.
