Idaea aversata ( Linnaeus, 1758) View in CoL

Phalaena Geometra aversata Linnaeus, 1758: 526 .

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — Larva (L5) 28.V.2011 Sant’Anna di Valdieri (larva pupated: 3.VI.2011, ♀ emerged 14.VI.2011; slide code 3739 GEK leg. et det., deposited MNCN) on soil underneath Rumex conglomeratus ( King & Viejo Montesinos 2012) .

NOTES ON FOOD- PLANT. — The association with Rumex conglomeratus might suggest that this is a larval food-plant, but it could instead be that it is only acting as structural support.

OTHER OBSERVATIONS. — Previously recorded in the PNAM ( Baldizzone et al. 2005; King & Viejo Montesinos 2012).
