petrophora chlorosata
part of the geometridae family found across Europe. I disturbed it whilst walking through the bracken and nettles in the meadow, I wouldnt have seen it otherwise as its wingspan is only around 18mm. Usually flying from end of April to the end of June.
seen in low common meadow, owned by the Yorkshire wildlife trust.
larvae feeds on bracken.
