Brian,

The syrphid may be a Baccha species but I am not at all sure.

I note that you are alternating the Dicytomina between ornata and saundersi. Perhaps one of those GIF alternating images?

Very nice Brian. I've never seen a Psyllid like that before.

Thanks for the comments

Paul - that Psyllid is the most common one I find in the garden. The others are similar shapes but different colour schemes. This particular one was doing it's seductive walk display which I assume is something to do with attracting a mate rather than for my entertainment (they do an exaggerated bum wiggle as they walk slowly along).
