Criteria
| Question 1: | Does species need conservation or recovery in England? |
| Response: | No |
| Justification: | GB Red List (Fox et al. 2019): LC; GB long term distribution increase of 123% but much of this will be outside England. Long term abundance decline of 40% although this is not statistically significant. |
