| |  ID on tiny fly
Hi again,
This little guy was on a Telehandler I was examining, got the camera out an took these pics, it is about 2mm long and what I found facinating was that it walked forward , stopped, then crabbed sideways, two or three times it done this while I watched, it has a spur on the hind legs, there were lots of chipped bark, the nice smelly kind that is used in decorative gardens.
Cheers Duncan     |

Looks frog-hopperish.

It is Conomelus anceps a froghopper usually associated with rushes along acidic woodland rides. |  | |
