Did u notice the sphegina sibrica on the hawthorn up top llan quite a few there first I've seen for a while
yes had over 200 pale (orange) form and 100 pied (orange/black) form which I booked in as Sphegina sibirica/clunipes agg. Specimens suggest all the pale forms are sibirica but some of the pied forms are clunipes.
