Yes :D 2 dark longitudinal bars on the thorax, so it's
Mintho :)

This time correct, but beware that related genera like Minthodes share the same features and do occur in the Alps.

Theo - is the identification between those genera done on "petiole" (
Mintho) or "no petiole" (
Minthodes), as implied in the Central European key?

The other Minthoini lack the appendix to the bend of vein M.
