1713 Idaea aversata f-remutata (Riband Wave - Non-Banded)

Geometridae, Sterrhinae - Wingspan: 28-32mm.

A common species which is widespread and comes in two forms. This is the Non-Banded Form, where the cross bands of the wings are left isolated. Population flight times are from late May to early September, peaking in July. It is considered that the Banded Form (see previous picture) is more frequent in woodland of the southern counties, but often it is the reverse.
