Good morning,
collected at 15 August 2023, Soutwest-Germany, Saar, in the forest, near a pond, near the ground with moss, ferns and flowing water from a source that is framed by concrete and led trough a pipe into the pond.
Please confirm if possible

Edit: size about 9mm
thanks in advance

Yes I think this is C. wesmaeli, it has the characteristic undulating radial vein
