Irish status: Common Locally
Dotted Border - Quite a few moths are named after their appearance. Note the border of dots along the base of the wings. Widely distributed around the British Isles. This is a male moth photographed at Greaghnafarna Co. Leitrim. Would you believe the female Dotted Border does not even fly! It hardly has any wings at all.
