A male L. punctatum, I think, Don - darker thorax than the female. Any other pictures?

Thanks, Peter. No other profile shot that would have given a better ID. I've added another image that shows some 'bubbling' behaviour before it flew off. Strong macro lens hand-held didn't help!

Michael Batley has corrected me on this one, Don. No yellow on the face of male Homalictus, and long antennae segments.
