Can you give some clues - like date of capture, locality, habitat etc?

Thanks Tony Chris - Good point - Date of capture for this specimen was 3 weeks ago, but have been finding others since. Various sites in Surrey. Always found close to river, ponds, streams. I had been though Stuart Ball's family key about a dozen times and never reach a happy result. I have Martin Drake's Key somewhere. Edited by Mark-uk on 05-04-2010 11:50 |
