This was actively moving around on a rhubarb leaf for a short while before flying away. This is the only good image. This as probably with the Printing Nikkor 105 at f11. Camera in manual mode, 1/250, TTL flash.

    Thanks, Brian.

    It's the same here. T

    For anyone hoping to find one, they are smaller than the green ones and not so visually outstanding.

    This may be Psectra diptera, based on the pattern of thickened veins.

    I think this is the same species are recently posted by Paul Iddon.
