Notes: N. lucidus was first reported from Norway by Endrestøl et al. (2006). The hostplants are Prunus spinosa and Crataegus ( Taeger et al. 1998) . At Lindøya P. spinosa is abundant. At Røer the specimen was collected while basking on a P. padus leaf. May be N. lucidus are able to utilize P. padus as a hostplant? P. spinosa and Crataegus was not present at this collecting site.
