Could you give a reliable size of this creature?

First of all, thank you for your replies, Dysmachus and Leptogaster Smile

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't realize about it Sad

Leptogaster, I cannot remember exactly but I would say it was slightly bigger than a female Dysmachus trigonus, if that helps. Wasn't smallish, that is for sure.

The tibiae are quite reddish, you may check Machimus chrysitis. That is a large species (19-24mm, that is much larger than a D. trigonus), and that might not fit this one.
