That would be my guess but it isn't an easy ID from photos

It looks a lot like the female L. picta I was seeing here in Suffolk in early October. Steve |

Thanks, Do you think it's rather Linnaemya picta because of red tibiae ? Christine |

That was my thinking, also the pale humerus. Steve |

Hmm, it's got a bit more black stubble on its chin too ... I thought it only had pale hairs on the gena, so it does look a bit more like picta then

Thanks Steve and Chris, I saw in the key that picta has not an oval wart on the inside of the second antennal segment. Is it possible to see this feature on these pictures ? Christine Devillers attached the following image:  [166.15Kb] |

Thanks, so this would confirm that it is not tesselans. |
