Corixa panzeri


Large numbers of water boatman came to light the night I found this. With so much else to look at I ignored most of them but I picked this one out as it was larger than most and larger than any of the species I had identified recently, so it seemed there was a good chance it would be something new for me. And so it was. It was about 10.7mm long and just over 4mm wide.
