Jersey - 2 specimens taken in Trinity, Howard Davis Farm, \<$ on lO.ix. 1985 and 1$ on 12.ix. Rothamsted Insect 

 Survey, (site no. 146) R. Collier; it is suggested that with the capture of a $, the possibility of the species 

 having established itself on Jersey should be investigated, especially as the species has the [potential ]status 

 of an horticultural pest in Europe, [larvae are defoliators and in cases of serious attack may sufficiently 

 weaken trees to leave them open to secondary attack by other pests; the species seldom builds up 

 sufficiently large populations to cause significant damage but the urticating hairs of the larvae may have 

 nuisance value, (see D.J. Carter, 1984:243-244)], A.M. Riley, 1987a (99):225; & [date for $ incorrectly
