I'm surprised I can't find this to i.d. myself, but having tried and failed I know someone here will know what it is. Seen in my garden (nr. Brighton) today. Any help appreciated. Thanks!  |

Nice find - this bug has spread inland in recent years, probably in response to gradual climatic warming. Could you pm me the record details for the recording scheme please? Thanks, Tristan |

Thanks in advance. | Nice one- I've not seen this, but yes the same + I'm sure Tristan would appreciate the record as he is the recorder for this group of insects. |
