How exciting............thanks for the link Dave :cool:

I hope it doesn't have too much of an effect on certain moths if it's here to stay :thinking:

I noticed that it has taken two years for this wasp to be verified so it would be interesting to know whether any others have been found since this one. :thinking:

That could certainly be a concern Paula and it would be very interesting indeed Grayling if any other specimens are recorded and how far away from the original site.

Very true Paula! This is not something that we need at the moment, our Ash trees are suffering enough as it is.
