Bibio
Can anyone please name a Bibio species with a clear red/orange band
around the body - almost certainly the natural fly that has given rise
to the angler's Bibio pattern:

I saw a lot on 22nd, close to St Mark's day, but the only pics I can
find of St Mark's Fly, Bibio Marci, lack the red band around the middle.
(It's definitely not Bibio Hortulans, which has a red thorax.)
