hmm, tribe Heleomyzini. You should look at the prosternum, if any setulae are present !

Andrzej, finally all daily chores are done.

I see two strong hairs on the prosternum.

I hope I did this right, as the abdomen dried, it shrunk (duh)
and the pin holding the genitalia open might have deformed the
whole thing. If I ruined it, any tips on how to do it right are welcome.

Thank you Andrzej!

Fauna Europaea does not list Gymnomus caesius for Norway.
