Thank you Angela - Oedemera Nobilis
This is a common and often abundant species throughout lowland western and southern Europe; it is especially common in warmer Mediterranean climates including most of North Africa but it is absent from much of Europe east of Germany and it extends north only to Denmark, where it is scarce, and the U.K. It is absent from Scandinavia. In the U.K. it was formerly very local and restricted in the south of England but following a period of expansion since the 1990’s it is now common throughout southern England and Wales and there are a few records further north to the Scottish borders. So far there are very few records from Ireland. Adults occur from April or May and persist into August; they are pollen feeders and may be found on the flowers of a wide range of plant families e.g. Asteraceae, Cyperaceae, Convolvulaceae, Cruciferae, Plantaginae, Rosaceae, Rubiaceae and Apiaceae etc. but they are especially attracted to those of Leucanthemum vulgare, Oxeye daisy, and various umbels; the first records of the year are often from Crataegus blossom. They are mostly active in sunshine and may occur in just about any situation with a suitable supply of flowers; grassland, waste ground, parks and meadows etc. and later in the season they may be swept from grassland in abundance e.g. we have found them to be very common on south-facing grassy slopes in the Chiltern hills.
