I've no idea for this one. There were lots of them, in mixed woodland on the banks of a small stream near Rome, Italy. About 3/4 mm long.
Thanks, Sarah

Thanks ;). Even down to genus level is great, Sarah.

Hi Sarah
Nice pics of
Parydra, but not aquila (which has
very short bristles on the head). Possibly
coarctata or
quadripunctata - if you have the specimen I can describe the characters you need to look at.

Thanks to you Tony. I only have the photo, but don't worry, genus level is just great, Sarah.
