Blair's Mocha Cyclophora puppillaria
(Hübner, [1799])
Wingspan 28-36 mm.
An immigrant species along the south coast, occurring in small numbers since the first record in 1946. More recently it has become far more frequent, and may well be a sporadic colonist, or perhaps is expected to become resident in the future.
On the continent, the larval foodplants include evergreen oak (Quercus ilex) amongst others.
