Nuts! Another Procladius - just darker than the other male.

Dull color and hairy wings suggest Procladius (Holotanypus) instead of Procladius (Psilotanypus) like the other. This is a very difficult subgenus, with few species distinguishable by external characters.

Great - then it's another species, so it counts for my garden. Many thanks, John.
