Gilfach (west), Top Llan

 Not much to see in-between the heavy showers, but what was seen was of good quality in the hoverfly world.

Didea fasciata - having a good year
Chrysotoxum arcuatum - summer brood
Xanthogramma pedissequum s.s.- the sternite (underneath abdomen) identification feature not shown in this photo but seen in field.
Rhingia campestris - second brood rather scarce this year
Meliscaeva cinctella -commonest hoverfly at this time of year on Angelica
