1.
Hercostomus, but none of the species we have here in Finland. This genus is large in Central and Southern Europe but very poorly represented in the boreal zone.
2.
Chrysotus gramineus

I wondered about
Hercostomus but was undecided because of the body colour and rather long antennae...
And I admire your courage to state that the
Chrysotus is
graminues...
