The attached photo was taken on 26th June 2012 in a copsed woodland, mainly silver birch and chestnut, in South East England. I'd be grateful if the identification could be confirmed or corrected Thank you Gordon Gordon Jarvis attached the following image:  [157.19Kb] Edited by Gordon Jarvis on 08-03-2013 13:23 |

Welcome abroad Gordon. As I said, your record fits very nicely with others we have had for L. picta since it was added to the British list a few years ago. It also looks very similar to photos I have seen of picta but it would be nice to hear from the European experts who might have seen a few more of these than I have

The picture is too small for me, but it seems * the tibiae are not red * the humerus is not yellowish ... so picta is not too promising...... Theo |
