Common Gromwell

This may encourage / help any prospective larvae hunters...Whiteford perhaps looks the most promising?

  1. Thanks Barry. Might be a good excuse for a nice walk.

  2. Thanks for the posting Barry. MapMate tells me that the north Cardiff dot is at Southview, Tongwynlais, so I'll try and nip over there if I get chance.

  3. Checked the gromwell at Tongwynlais today - no larvae or feeding damage, but not surprising as there were only a few plants at the site.

    I did see a Clouded Yellow by way of compensation.

  4. I noticed a fair amount of Common Gromwell in the Alun Valley this year whilst looking for butterflies. The grid ref was approx SS908758. Might be worth checking there?
