Both were males which is perhaps more likely than the female to be mobile. As for others not recording it, you really do have to be into micros to bother to look at it. Last year one other was identified on the south coast at the same time as Matthews. But yes keep a watch on your tomatoes.

No others seem to have been reported so perhaps locally bred? Are there any tomato growers nearby perhaps? Be interesting to see if anyone else turns it up.

Possibly a third that escaped before close examination. Suggests quite a few may have landed in the country.
