Four-banded Flower Bee (Anthophora quadrimaculata)
Bare-saddled (Colletes)
The females have a bare first tergite and this can be seen in the images above.
The hind tarsus shape of the male matched the images in Stephen Falk's album
These two image show a much Hairier variety of colletes
VB commented this is probably a fresher male Bare-saddled Colletes , which accounts for the hairiness
Out you come. That's my hole!
No way. it's mine

Toothed Oak Crust Sp?
From AC
The spores of this are too small (5.4-6 x 2.8-3 microns) to be Basidioradulum radula or Radulomyces molaris so I have to conclude
it is
Xylodon (formerly Hyphodontia) quercinus.
Snipe Fly (Rhagio scolopaceus)?
Norwich
Two species of Ash-leaf Aphis
are
Prociphilus bumeliae & Prociphilus fraxini
and they are identical at this stage.
Both of these species are host alternate. - From Ash (Fraxinus) to Fir (Abies)
Apparently the wax protects the aphids from the effects of their own honeydew. Also it is thought they tend to stop producing honeydew when , as in this case, they are attended by ants.
JE a took a sample and determined these were
Prociphilus bumeliae
AshLeaf Aphid
Only the winged individuals (alates) are capable of being determine but still tricky if not impossible from photographs.
You need to be able to determine the relative lengths of the third antennal segment as compared to the second.
