It certainly looks like Gymnosoma rotundatum but the best angle for the photograph would have been from above, where we could have seen the golden dusting on the thorax. Wink

Hmm... rotundatum or nudifons I think - but I'll have to leave that one for Theo for a really positive ID. They are a very difficult genus and I don't see enough of them here in the UK. Smile

Can't tell.
The last picture by Urs is not the same specimen as the first two, is it ??
Please, beware of this type of confusion !
My guess (no more) is that the first two are rotundatum, the last is nudifrons.
Females are so much easier (in Gymnosoma)
