Scarce Crimson and Gold
Pyrausta sanguinalis
Pyrausta sanguinalis, the scarce crimson and gold, is a species of moth of the family Crambidae. It is found across western Europe as far east as southern Finland. In the British Isles it was formerly found at multiple coastal locations in NW England and Scotland, however it has now much declined and it is restricted to a few locations in Northern Ireland and a single site on the Isle of Man.
