Tenthredo maculata GEOFFROY, 1785
Benson (1952) records Tenthredo maculata as “Widespread and sporadic in woods throughout Britain N. to Firth of Forth [..]”. Some recent plantings of young trees have been made around Lochan na Lairige, but the locality can in no way yet be regarded as possessing woodland. In places, the presence of several typically woodland herbs seems however to indicate that more tree or scrub cover once existed. The above records are perhaps so far the most northerly for T. maculata in the British Isles, although Liston (1980a) had already recorded a specimen further south in Perthshire.
