As soon as a replacement map service is available, distribution maps will hopefully appear here again.

In the meantime, you can get some idea of distribution from the NBN Atlas website.

Ectoedemia atricollis

(Stainton, 1857)


Wingspan 5-6 mm.

The larvae of this species form mines on hawthorn, apple, pear and wild cherry. Initially, the larvae form galleries along the edge of the leaf, leading to the development of large blotches on the leaf margin.

The adult moths emerge in a single generation in June and are widespread throughout England and Wales.
