Swept from grass, edge of pine forest. Size 6.5 mm. It looks familiar, but I'm not sure...

I'm going to take a guess at a female Blondelia nigripes ... I can see those ventral tergite combs and it doesn't have hairy eyes, so it can't be Compsilura

Blondelia nigripes is fairly uncommon here in the UK but it was one of the commonest species from my trip to Russia in August/September. |
