Afternoon Barbs,
It's a stunner from the Cimbicidae family - they seem to look quite distinctive. As for species, I'll pass on this one - lack of familiarity, and that. John is good with these.
Take care,
Jason  |

Just wondering if its Zaraea lonicerae, but I've never seen one so can't be sure. Seems far too early for Abia and the antennae seem wrong.
