I actually think I might know this one, it's a bit disguised by the pollen but I wonder if it's Chrysogaster solstitalis? Tim |

In that case I suspect I'm being overambitious - second opinion definitely needed. Tim |

Antennae are black, so it is Melanogaster |

Thanks Guys(?) Seems like I've found a partner for the one I posted earlier...thought it might be, but wasn't sure. I'll go with M.hirtella for this one and my previous post. Regards Roger |
