Eutheia formicetorum, E. linearis, Euconnus pragensis, Microscydmus minimus, Phyllodrepa nigra, Tachinus bipustulatus, Euryusa sinuata, Tachyusida gracilis, Euplectus brunneus, E. nanus, Plectophloeus nitidus, Batrisodes adnexus and B. delaporti are all, at least in terms of recent records, more or less restricted in England to lowland wood-pasture and parkland sites.

Stenichnus godarti, Velleius dilatatus, Euryusa optabilis, Euplectus punctatus are less strictly limited to but may be regarded as specialists in this habitat. Recent confirmed records for E. pragensis, P. nigra, E. sinuata, T. gracilis and B. delaporti are all for the Windsor Great Park and Forest area. Tachinus bipustulatus has not been found in Britain since the 1930s when it was last found in Windsor Great Park and Forest.

Quedius microps, Q. scitus, Oxypoda recondita and Batrisodes minutus are mostly restricted to Lowland Wood-pasture and Parkland.

The few confirmed British records for Medon dilutus are all for wooded sites that may qualify as Lowland Wood-pasture and Parkland
