73.063 Amphipyra berbera - Svensson's Copper Underwing

  Sorry - no images available for this moth.

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

Only separated as a species from Copper Underwing in the late 1960s. Even after this date it is probable that a significant number of records of Copper Underwing may have been misidentified svenssoni. Authentic records indicate that svenssoni is more frequent in the west of the county, however, more work is required before an assessment of the species' true status in the county can be made. Specimens in NMWC show that it was present in the county before the 1960s.
