Hello!

This I had marked as 3mm, but to my memory it seems smaller, more like 2mm! It was impossible to get good pics of as it kept moving, but hopefully there's enough for at least a genus. The colour to my eye was deep metallic blue, but shows differently in the pics.

I imagine it's another Chrysotus sp.

16th June 2010. my garden near Lincoln UK.
