These specimens were taken in Norfolk but very close to the border with Suffolk. They were in alder carr and are fairly numerous at the moment.

I've taken P. rufovittatus at the same locality, so I'll add pictures of that if I find one. So far I've found 6 of the 9 British Procladius locally.

Thanks empeejay, now I will have a good idea what the male looks like if I find one. I searched through all my last three years photos but didn't find one like it.

It was fortunate that you got both! Where are you located?
