Hi

could this be Chrysopilus cristatus, a male?
Any confirmation/correction is welcome.

Switzerland, 430 msm, 15.06.2010, edge of forest, near small wetland

Thanks a lot, Brigitte

Exact ID impossible without seeing the hairs around mouthparts. Very probably cristatus, but I cannot exclude splendidus...

There are hardly any golden hairs on thoracic dorsum .....

indicates cristatus in my opinion.
