Neria cibaria
about 5 mm long insect, thin, looks like some kind of fly, never seen anything like this before
found taking a sunbath on an evening primrose leaf
think that I´ve got the right ID
I'm certainly confused: stilt-legged fly with cricket hind legs, wasp body and alien head. It'd be really scary if it was bigger. Sorry I can't help withan ID, but it's an interesting spotting.
