A good view of the antennae would be helpful...

Sorry, I could not do better, but at least now I know what details to photograph in these difficult but beautiful species!

Thank you, anyway.

Thanks for the extra picture. Still I dare not to ID the specimen. It belongs to the marginata group of species and might be femorata.
