No less than seven species of Lacewing included 4 green lacewings all new for the year here (Chrysopidia ciliata, 2 Cunctochrysa albolineata, 2 Dichochrysa flavifrons and Dichochrysa prasina), 2 brown lacewings (2 Hemerobius humulinus and one that I'd never identified before: Wesmaelius subnebulosus.) and at least one species of Waxfly (two female Conwentzia sp. - only the males can be identified).

The beetles were good too - no lifers but three that I hadn't recorded here before (one or two probably only because I haven't been looking at them closely enough, though I think I might have picked up on the ladybird in previous years if I'd seen one) - a Glow-worm Lampyris noctiluca, the click beetle Melanotus villosus and a 10-spot Ladybird. There was also a Harleqin Ladybird.
