13 Jun 1993 Woolston Eyes SJ6487 Adult 1 Accepted by Cheshire Moth Group Panel January 2003, taken at rest on a bramble leaf. As for whether it was VC58 or VC59 is debatable. As we didn't have computerised mapping systems then the grid refs were worked out from the paper map and both recorders thought they were in slightly different places - actually they are their attempts at giving a centroid reference for the site. Having checked the Recorder map with the VC58 overlay they are still unsure. They think they were just in VC58 at SJ64788795. recorders pers comm, Rutherford (1993)
1990 Rostherne Mere SJ7484 Adult 1 photographed moth among osiers, Rutherford (1990)
