This little thing was sitting on a leaf by a rivulet in the woodlands, outskirts of Madrid on the 12th October 2011. I belive it has to be Calliopum aeneum or Calliopum similimum. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Nothing more than Calliopum is possible from these images.

Oops!! Sorry, Paul! I skipped your answer! Frown Thanks a bunch anyway!! Smile

Little question Wink : what is necessary to see to get something closer to a cf. at least? I find those little fellows extremely often and I would like to get closer to an ID. If it is possible, of course! Wink
