The following specimen was sighted near my home on 30/07/2014, and whilst I think it might be a sawfly belonging to the Genus Tenthredo, it would be nice to have expert confirmation if possible.  Sighting data as follows: Location: UK, NW England, Ordnance Survey Grid Reference SJ 5000 8549 (10 metre square) Date: 30/07/2014, approximately 13:10 BST. Specimen captured temporarily for USB microscope shots then released. Photo of specimen in natural setting follows, with one of the USB shots in the following post.

It is a solitary wasp (Vespidae) - but I can´t say which genera (or species)
