Corizus hyoscyami?

Hello all,

I have just received the attached image (via email hence the small size). The sender attached a tentative ID of Corizus hyoscyami. I wonder whether anyone out there can confirm this ID from the attached picture.

It was seen in Macclesfield, so a little unusual for this species?

Thanks,
Eric

Thanks Steve, I will let the recorder know.

We only have 2 records, from our area, for this species (both from Wirral), so it is a good record.

Thanks again,

Eric
