using keys from Tschorsnig, i also arrive at L. phaeoptera

I have a document from Bergstrom and i think that the abdomen matches L. phaeoptera not the paratype L. erecta.

wait for Theo's opinion but i think that you are correct with L. phaeoptera.


Thanks, John and Nini...appreciate your time on this. I suspect phaeoptera is right...I just wondered about erecta as the location is way further north than other records in the UK.
