Review of old - and often bad - pictures.
This of Aywaille (Belgium) 4/5/2008.
I guess female of
Cricotopus sp
, perhaps
Cricotopus cf tremulus
?
Right ?

If the white color is confined to the second tarsomere the species should be
Cricotopus pulchripes
according to Hirvenoja's revision. If it extends to the third there are three other species from northern Europe.
