On 5 June 2015, a moth species, new for the Netherlands, was discovered in Zeeland province.
Moth monitors Piet Jopse and Henk Wagenaar found this Eublemma purpurina, Beautiful marbled moth.
This beautiful insect is a south European species. Climate change means it gets further and further to the north.
