I took my old friend Engel (1938): Cyrtopogon pyrenaicus. In translation: (7-, p. 323) front tarsae in both sexes yellow, only the last segment darkened. In both sexes, the 2-5th tergite yellow dusted in the centre and with golden yellow hairs, also the hind margins yellow dusted. The anal segment shining black, short and dense haired in the male, bare in the female. Intriguing remark of Engel: -pulchripes would key out here according to Loew-
