Hello, Jan! It's a Cantharid beetle. Looks mostly like Cantharis lateralis but I'm no expert and there are other species with a similar looking colouration. C. lateralis: http://www.koleop...ehler.html Others: http://www.koleop...ehler.html http://www.koleop...ehler.html http://www.koleop...ehler.html Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Thank you very much, Juergen and cthirion! I suspected it was a Cantharis sp., but could not find a matching member of this genus. But lateralis seems perfectly right!
