Collected in Juni 2018 in Niedersachsen. On first glance I thought
Chrysotus (size, general build, hind coxal seta near base of coxa, two rows of acrostichals, face very narrow), but first antennal segment has dorsal setae. What am I missing?

I think you found a
Chrysotus that didn't read the key to genera.

An alcohol material often contains wandering setae. Maybe it's a case.

No, it is well fixed!

Aberration. I almost blew the bulb of the light to be able to see the right first antennal segment (black left antenna giving a dark background) but there is no seta on it. So,
Chrysotus (likely
gramineus), female.
