I've run this through both Belshaw, and Tschorsnig & Herting, both came up with tenebricosa. I'm not entirely convinced however - I can't really judge the extent of the parafacial hairs on any of my photos - I wonder what the experts think.

thanks

It's the leg colour that always throws me - I can't make out any orange in the mid or hind tibia. Nevertheless, many thanks for the identification Theo, now I can finally put a definite name to one of these.
