 Can anyone help me with an ID for this beastie, photographed recently on Ithaka?? After a frustrating half an hour trying to upload a picture of said beastie, would someone kindly furnish me with an idiot proof method of attaching photos to messages ( sorry to be such a computer dummy)
Antonym attached the following image:

 Hi Roger and thanks for the suggestion. It certainly loks right in all the pix of jacchus that I cn find. Maybe one of the Dip 'aces' would be kind enough to confirm?
