Seems to be Carcelia, and seems to key out as lucorum, using Belshaw, T&H and Chris's revised British key - or maybe I'm being overoptimistic! 30/4/2010; Devon, England. Tim tim worfolk attached the following image:  [142.48Kb] Edited by tim worfolk on 06-05-2010 12:11 |

It does rather look like C.lucorum to me too ... and it certainly isn't C.bombylans, which would be another fairly frequent candidate (because they tend to have a yellower dusting, especially on the thorax.

It does seem to run to C.lucorum with the key, don't think its C.bombylans as it has a dark basicosta. Nice pics, could we have the record data for the Recording Scheme database please. Edited by Matt Smith on 02-05-2010 10:01 |

Thanks Matt and Chris, happy to send in records - I've already sent in last years to Chris - if it's OK I'll save up this years and submit in bulk later when everything's been processed. Tim |
