Survey
In 2000, the two sites from which L. nigristigma was recorded in 1994 were resurveyed along with twenty or so similar sites in Shropshire and Montgomeryshire. The target species was located at eight (possibly nine) sites. The majority of sites are centred on southwest Telford with only two outlying sites.[1]

gollark: Is anyone except <@151149148639330304> actually DOING anything?
gollark: What if we keep the existing buildings, but BEEstructure them by adding Worker Bees™ - produced by apiaries - to move items around and queue things autonomously?
gollark: We should replace mines with Mining Bees™.
