Cladius compressicornis

Formerly known as Priophorus pallipes (and called this in the RES key) and more recently still sometimes treated as a member of the genus Priophorus (e.g. Lacourt has it as Priophorus compressicornis).


This came to light. It keyed fairly straightforwardly although it was quite hard to see the details of the frons.
