Photos taken in Reading, UK, on 2010-09-04. It looks like Epicampocera succinata or Pales pavida. Anyone know any better? tristram attached the following image:  [108.96Kb] Edited by tristram on 02-04-2012 16:59 |

Not Pales (I don't see facial ridge bristles and the tibiae don't look pale) and it doesn't look the right shape/colour for Epicampocera ... but it might be a Phryxe ... would be better to have a specimen though because something doesn't look right

I´m lost. Any chance for Nemorilla? I´ve never seen so early Phryxe! |

Yeah, me neither ... but it just doesn't look like Nemorilla to me - dusting is too grey/blue ... it just needed catching
