Would be my first guess. Without seeing microtrichia on wing, difficult to exclude chloropus for sure. Theo |

Thanks! Maybe these pictures can be helpful. A wing from both sides. |

Morten - Yes I agree with O. chloropus - but these Norwegian pics show differences from the specimens I have caught in the last few weeks which have a shiny polished black thoracic disc, scutellum and frons. Perhaps we should swap specimens and do a comparison .... Iain .
