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.  |

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.  |

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) Theo |
