There are 4 species in Finland, of which only Achalcus cinereus has black body.

Compare with Australachalcus melanotrichus, which has entirely black antenna.

Dear RamiP,

Did you actually collect this species? This does not seem like any of the species that are mentioned as both A. cinereus and A. melanotrichus (with 6 dc bristles) have largely pale legs. I would not exclude a new species to science, hence my inquiry. I would be most interested to see the specimen of course as this subfamily is my absolute favourite!
Cheers,
Marc (mpollet.doli@gmail.com)
