Can you help in the search for Lead-coloured Drab in Northumberland in 2012
It would be fantastic to re-locate this species in our counties. The only record we have is Mr Finlay's from the Morpeth area in 1899. Trapping in suitable habitat with Aspen Populus tremula & Black Poplar Populus nigra in March and April may pay dividends. Finding the trees is as hard as finding the moth.
