User's notes
Sighted on a footbridge handrail at ANBG. The insect was at rest with its head downwards as seen in the second and fifth images. I'm unsure what this insect was so have placed it under True Flies for now to get the sighting into the system. This appears to be the same type of insect as my previous sighting 4496845.
