Photographed today 8/6/2009, Devon, England, garden.

I thought this would turn out to be one I'd already posted but doesn't seem to match - have I got the right family?

Many thanks Stephane. So what do I need to look at to separate melanocephala from discrepans (which appear to be the only 2 Phyto sp. in Britain)?
