Hi,

Ok, only two species to make a choice here in Finland. Aeneum or elisae. This one is more greenish and elisae should be more bluish in colour. This one has the small setae (acrostichal or something) in six rows instead of four. I don't have my books here where I spend my summer, but somehow I remember, that this should be the difference. Allso the coloration with legs was differend but I just don't remember what it was :(

Greetings

Hi, it is female of Calliopum ellisae - I see the genitalia, but C. ellisae have 4 rows of acrostichal setae.

Thank You so much. After closer look with microscope, four rows indeed. You have sharp eyes ! :)
