Yorkshire Status: Rare and local resident.

Sutton & Beaumont, 1989: Recorded sparsely from all five vice-counties.

CHF 2023 This species is often recorded as leaf folds on birch. Whilst these records are probably safe on the lower ground, records from birch woodland on higher ground in the north and west of the county are probably best regarded as unconfirmed. Parornix loganella makes similar leaf folds and may be commoner than our records suggest.

Determination by Genitalia Examination (gen. det.) Required

Mine: Either the leaf or a good photograph required

Recorded in 74 (37%) of 200 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1883.
Last Recorded in 2023.
