Yorkshire Status: Very rare and very local. No recent record.

Sutton & Beaumont, 1989: Not recorded since Porritt (1883-86). The single Yorkshire record he reported was from Doncaster (VC63) on 14.6.1883 by George Tindall. It is of interest that this species has recently been taken for the first time in Northumberland (Dunn & Parrack, 1986).

Current status (CHF, 2011): Last record 1883. Not likely to recolonise as there are no populations near our borders.

Recorded in 1 (1%) of 200 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1883.
Last Recorded in 1883.
