Waved Black - Darley Dale

Amazingly this is Simon's 6th record of the Waved Black in Darley Dale during the past 13 years. There are very few records elsewhere in the County and it appears that a colony has established itself at a wood yard close to his house sometime in the past with the original insects arriving on imported timber. 
This example is in good condition although it looked like a bird had taken a section off the tip of the left hand wing which I have Photoshopped back on.
