Netted Pug - new for the garden

The Netted Pug is possibly the most attractive of all the pug family and is a welcome addition to the garden list. 
Widespread through southern Britain and north to the Midlands it is thinly distributed through the rest of Britain. 
The species does not come readily to light so is more likely to be found as a larvae by sifting through the seed pods of Bladder Campion, which fewer naturalists are inclined to do these days, including me.
