These were common on Chalk Downland, Wiltshire, August 2018. Not sure but I believe they may be the same species.   |

The two males are Tolmerus atricapillus but the female seems to Machimus cf rusticus (please note the black femora and the narrow red base of the tibiae) Both genera are closely related.
