 Dick, thats a very good record for the Benelux!

In Belgium we can count observations on one hand, latest observation in 1960! In the Netherlands they have been found more recently though, from reared material along the Rhine (if I recall the river correctly).

And the picture would be very nice for the gallery too.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
