Not 100% sure from these photos, but appears to be Scatella stagnalis

Nice, thanks Tony!
I will go back and try and find another to photograph better.
Let me know if there is something diagnostic to capture.

A bit more light would help! Otherwise a dorsal shot, a lateral shot and a facial shot would be good, and less reflection on the wings for that dorsal shot. No pressure! TumbsUp

Ok - pressure good!

I added remaining shots from this one here in case there's anything of use:

But will update this thread if I manage to find another at location.
