The Glamorgan Moth Group are a group of local moth enthusiasts devoted to the study and conservation of moths within the Vice County of Glamorgan, in south Wales.
Species account from Moths of Glamorgan (Gilmore, Slade & Stewart, 2009):
A species seemingly restricted to the few areas where the main foodplant Wormwood grows in good stands, and is apparently absent from some apparently suitable sites (e.g. Cwm Ivy Tor). First recorded at Llantrisant in 1857 (EJ), then at Pwlldu 1893 (RBR), Port Talbot Docks 1887 - 1901 (HWV), a series of specimens was collected from Swansea, Mumbles and Margam between 1944 and 1956 (CHT) and another was reported from Swansea in 1968 (Anon). The only modern record is of a singleton trapped at Roath, Cardiff 02.xiii.1996 (DRWG). Main flight period during July.
