Saw a few Medetera sp. today in southern England and thought of Nikita Grin Can we say anything more about them or is identification from photos impossible?

Well, at least we can both enjoy the photographs at least! Grin They are nice insects to follow and photograph. I had never tried until today but they seem to like any tree or even metal gate post so they are easy to find Smile
