Hi Gordon,

i think the yellow one is Ampedus elegantulus.
take a look at: http://www.elateridae.com/zobrbruk.php?id=2857

and the red one looks like Ampedus sanguinolentus.
take a look at: http://www.elateridae.com/zobrbruk.php?id=2911

also in general a very good resource for Elateridae is:
www.elateridae.com

hope this helps you,
cosmln

Thanks Cosmin, I have been and had a look and I think you may be correct.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
