Hi!
I think this is correct, and I know I have it but I would like confirmation to be sure.
12th November 2010, my garden near Lincoln UK. Size ~5mm

I don't think it is Paradelia...
With 1 av on mid and hindtibia i am more thinking about Pegoplata aestiva.
Do you have a view on the propleuron, must be haired...

I have one other shot Joke, cropped to show the propleuron which looks only a little hairy..

On the other hand, i also don't think it is P.aestiva because the peristomal margin is not projecting forwards...
And if the ad on the midtibia, maybe is mistaken for a av by me, it could be Paradelia intersecta after all..:D

I was only going by the 'V' shaped notch on the posterior! ;)
Anyway, thanks for the extra information and here's a crop from the second pic showing the mid and hind tibia better.

The "av" is indeed just ad!
Long ad and pv on the hindfemur and typical shape of the epandrium / genitals.......Paradelia intersecta.
Well done Janet.
