Do you have any more photos - closer and from different angles? Looks a bit like Nemorilla but not much is visible. Smile

Could it be Nemorilla floralis or better leave Nemorilla sp. ?

I'm having real trouble seeing the important feature - bristles on the shoulders in the shape of a forward-pointing triangle. Not sure on this one without seeing that feature Smile

I know what are you talking abut but I dont have any photo where this bristles are clearly visible (on the side view bristles are on dark piece of body and I don't see the bristles). There is any other tachind simial to this one - because in general apperance it looks like Nemorilla sp. male to me Pfft
