Suffolk, UK. 7th May 2020. Freraea gagatea A few of these came to a large water pan trap (swimming pool!) in warm windless weather. Plenty of Harpalus ground beetles too which are known hosts. At first sight on water they look a little like Lasioglossum bees because the wing shading and whitish lower calypter gives them a waisted appearance I think.

Superb! I believe this is quite a rare species.
