The largest Suillia I have seen to date, over 1 cm and very dark in colour.

I have a lot of pics of 1, 2 and 3, so let me know if a different angle is needed

4
A male, also 5 mm

Hi,
I've seen your pics yesterday.
It is sometimes very difficult to ID if some characters are not visible. I'll try to ID ASAP
