Review (by Malcolm Storey) | Summarises the distribution in Kent and reports a new host-plant for this recently introduced planthopper. |
Errata, Corrigenda & Comments | P215: Discussion, *Claviceps purpurea* is said to result in "loss of sward vigour and die-back" of *Spartina anglica*. The authors cite Cope and Gray (2009, BSBI Grasses handbook p550) however the latter authors merely note the co-occurrence and don’t imply any causal link. |
