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. Smile

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)

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
