Whitwell Common, UK (TG 086 201)
We've a rather restricted list to choose from in the UK, can anyone confirm which one this is?

Choerades sp. yes, but it's hard to see whether the colour of the hair on thorax and legs is grey or golden.

This is either C. marginata or C. femorata. In the UK the only other Choerades is gilva, Besides that, the hair and tomentum on the katepisternum is whitish grey, so, in my opinion, we can exclude C fimbriata/fulva.
