 At present this is only recorded from the Hartlepool district. 

 Mr. Sang found it at Seaton Carew, and it occurs fairly 

 commonly at Hartlepool, chiefly in sandy places, especially if a 

 little sheltered, such as behind the Ropery in the old days, 

 behind "Warren Farm, and in the enclosure formerly between 

 the cemetery and the sea. I see no reason why it should not 

 occur elsewhere, especially on the sandy shores.
