Another from August 2020. A repeat of (????) Lydella sp. possibly stabulans which I saw about 1 km from where this one was seen but in 2017... It "looks" the same, but "most" of these look very similar to me. :S

I’m with Roger : Lydella stabulans male.
The head is pretty large, the scutellar bristles are erect and there is only one strong bristle at base of vein R.
Male stabulans is the only Lydella with long pulvilli and erect hairs on abdomen (in Europe, that is).
