- Title
COLEOPHORA HYDROLAPATHELLA (HERING, 1921) (LEP.: COLEOPHORIDAE) BREEDING ON RUMEX CRISPUS L. IN SOUTHERN ENGLAND.
- Authors
LANGDON, WILLIAM B. V.
- Abstract
Coleophora hydrolapathella (Hering, 1921) is reported breeding on Curled Dock (Rumex crispus L.) at Rye Harbour NNR (East Sussex) and Dungeness (East Kent) where it is also using Great Water Dock (Rumex hydrolapathum L.). These are the first records for both vice counties, and appear to be the first of this rare species feeding on anything other than R. hydrolapathum. Differences in the biology of C. hydrolapathella on the two hosts and its status in the UK are discussed.
