HIST., 2: 1989 129 FIRST BRITISH RECORD OF POLYMIXIS GEMMEA (TREITSCHKE, 1825) (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) P. Waite The Four Horseshoes, Cockpole Green, Wargrave, Reading, Berkshire, RG10 8NT. At the 1987 BENHS Annual Exhibition, I exhibited a specimen of Polymixis gemmea (Waite, 1988). The moth was taken at light in my garden in East Berkshire on the night of l.ix.79. In spite of the late date and being something like 40 miles from the nearest coast as the crow flies, the only noctuid I could find on the British list which resembled my specimen, was Hadena albimacula (Borkh.) and this I assumed it to be. It was not until 7 years later, as a result of a casual conversation with Brian Baker, that I examined the moth more closely. It was then apparent that the similarity to H. albimacula was superficial and I began to believe I might have something that had not been previously recorded. Shortly afterwards, I received the first volume of the facsimile publication of Culot's Noctuelles et geometres d'Europe and found what I believed to be an illustration of my noctuid, referred to by Culot as Hadena gemmea. It was at this point I took it to the BMNH where Martin Honey confirmed its determination as Polymixis gemmea. This species is, apparently, widespread in the northern part of Continental Europe, occurring as far north as Finland and reaching northern France in the south. Two specimens in the BMNH are recorded as having been taken in Corsica, although these records are thought to be suspect. Martin Honey believes that Seitz's reference. Fig. 1. Polymixis gemmea..
