Got here eventually, shamed to take so long to find this site,
well done everyone for resurrecting the spirit of WAB

Anyway trying to name this one in Stuart & Roger's book,
sorry not a great photo,
nearest I can get is Sphegina - even vaguely correct do you think ?

Last Edit: Sept 11, 2015 16:38:56 GMT by exo: link OK
