Not the best of photographs, but is it possible to confirm this as a male Limnophora tigrina?
South Essex, England, 11 September 2015

This species seems to have had a good year.
I'd never seen one before but found 5 - all females - in my part of South Yorkshire this summer.

Stephane, thank you very much.
John, I have been seeing a few of these every year for the last three years. I can't say I have noticed an increase in numbers in this part of the world but, strangely, this is the first male I have seen.
Best wishes,
Phil
