I had a look at the map and just discovered that the locality is quite close to Dungeness. Most other records are from Susses as well.
This opens the possibility that most, if not all, rusticus in the UK are vagrant from the continent. There is a specimen of Therioplectes gigas from the other side, near Boulogne, that underlines this possibility.
Of course, it's no proof.
