It has a white spot at the base of the thorax and another at the tip of the abdomen but is otherwise mainly black with red legs. The antennae have a broad white band at about halfway.
Detailed examination required, or expert assistance with id.
Well vegetated areas.

True status in Britain is difficult to determine due to lack of records.
