    It's an Aphid of some sort. How big was it? What sort of plant was it on? Could it be a Black Bean Aphid?

    If you need ID on bugs/beetles etc in Britain then take a look at:-

    http://www.eakringbirds.com/eakringb...ctnews2019.htm

    A very helpful site run by a knowledgeable couple, who will give good advice.

    Certainly worth knowing. Send them a picture if you cant identify it yourself and they will try and point you in the right direction, thats if you cant find it on their extensive website itself.
