ZG 2 Bf 110 Battle of Britain Claims

I am looking for a source that lists claims by pilots of ZG 2 during the Battle of Britain. While Tony Wood's OKL claims listings includes BOB claims by other Bf 110 units there is not a single claim for ZG2. Some claims are listed in Mathews and Foreman's Luftwaffe Aces, Biographies and Victory Claims, but only for four 'aces' – these are repeated in Parry's BOB Combat Archive. I know that the unit did make significant claims as on 11 August the Luftflotte 3 Einzelmeldung reported : "St./Z.G.2., 1 Hurricane, 1 Spitfire; I./Z.G.2. 7 Hurricane, 4 Spitfire; II./Z.G.2 2 Hurricane, 2 Spitfires". I have checked several BF 110 reference books, but they only list losses, not claims. Any ideas?
