I thought this was very pretty, but it wasn't keen on having its photo taken... Any suggestions welcome Photo taken in Edinburgh Woodland July 2011. djo attached the following image:  [155.86Kb] Edited by djo on 26-07-2011 12:42 |

Thanks for the info! - No, alas I didn't collect a specimen. Is there anything it could be confused with? I could always go back and try to collect one, - but I don't have a collection and I'm not sure who else would be interested! Photo was taken within 50m of 55.920738N,-3.193568W |
