Hope this works - I've not posted a photo on here before!
I couldn't find this fella in my (basic) insect books. We found it deep down in Goydon. As this cave floods totally I guess he either got washed there or will have been washed out soon after.

Ok, that doesn't seem to have worked!
Back to the drawing board :-[

Don't worry, you can see it if you click on the link. What size was it?

Thanks for the comfort! I'll get some practice in.
It was about 2cm long - quite substantial I thought!

hmm goyden, sounds very good but i will make sure i take a good description and check water levels at the reservoir to make sure a good days caving and creature spotting doesn't end badly.
interesting creature spotter:
so far- aquamole fish, crickets in slovenian caves, proteus, Giants cave slug, cave Shrimps.
wishes for the future- lampreys, more bats, goyden bug, cave eel in ireland and cave starfish (lol), peak cavern snails.

Found a cave slug way down deep in Eglin (Nidderdale). About a centimetre long so bigger than the original posts'.
