Ramsons Hoverfly (Portevinia Maculata)

Post by MarkF »

There was a Twitter report on May 15 of Ramsons Hoverfly (Portevinia maculata) at Yarrow Valley Park. I've never heard of this species before, I don't know how common (or not) it is here. Here's their photograph, and the original tweet https://twitter.com/GreenLifeLancs/stat ... 8244334592

Thanks Len. I can't claim credit though - Gareth Wilson took it! :oops: :P
