I think this might be a Linnaemya sp. Can anyone confirm this? Photos taken in woodland in Reading, UK, on 2012-05-11. tristram attached the following image: [187.35Kb] Edited by tristram on 11-05-2012 19:32 |

No, it is a Phorocera.

The mouth edge isn't projecting enough for Linnaemya ... but it could be Phorocera assimilis (etc). A specimen would be needed to confirm it I think Doh!
