Chances are that you are right but I cannot see why it could not be one of a few other Calliopum. The pictures show relatively little green (I'd expect more in these two species), but that may just be the pictures.

Hi,
I agree with Paul. It is not possible tell more than Calliopum sp. from this photos! In Belgium live C. ellisae too.
