Body 2,5-3 mm. Female with first tarsomere red-orange on all legs.
Are genus and spieces possible to tell?

Hi Kurt

With short antennae and a bare lunule this is a species of Earomyia. It gets a bit more difficult to get a species level identification - the highly silvered face looks a bit like E. argenta but microscopic examination is required to confirm
