On a leaf here but with other insects who were busily foraging on patches of invasive Solidago gigantea next to a well-wooded stream flowing through open meadows.

Sorry Ray, I meant female but wrote male!
And I think it could be the female M. hortorum - but not 100% sure.

Moin Eric,
:) I often have that problem when talking:@ and only realise when the other person has a strange look on their face.
Best Regards
Ray
