Only one new insect today, one of those tricky to identify ichneumon wasps, a pimpline ichneumon which I believe might be Apechthis compunctor?

After many sightings of nymphs earlier in the summer I have now seen an adult Speckled Bush-cricket (Leptophyes punctatissima). Other photographs included a female Hornet Mimic Hoverfly (Volucella zonaria), a male Kite-tailed Robberfly (Machimus atricapillus) and a male Gatekeeper (Pyronia tithonus) butterfly with 2 Trombidium breei mites attached.
