From southern Sweden in june I suppose that this is either Leptogaster guttiventris or cylindrica. This one has a "undefined" black ring around its femur, suggesting guttiventris. I'm I right, or should the black ring be more obvious to be sure of the species? Martin maroo attached the following image:  [149.04Kb] Edited by maroo on 28-12-2018 12:08 |

guttiventris is right! Please note the abdomen also, it is banded and lacks the longitudinal stripe of cylindrica. Also the apex of T3 is not black which is usually black in cylindrica.
