Norfolk status Local. Habitats where the foodplant occurs. Similar to Hornet Moth, but smaller with black head and shoulders.
Up until 2020, adults were rarely recorded as no pheromone lure was available. In July 2020 a new lure (lun) became available and records have increased dramatically.
Adult moths can also be found by day in early mornings freshly emerged from Willow trunks. Overwinters twice as larva.
There are records from a wide scatting of locations throughout the county, and could occur wherever there are reasonably long established sallows or osiers.
