Hi,
For a change, I show you another dead one from our window sill today. It is a well preserved Suillia that passed away rather recently. Did I photograph the right features for species ID?
Many thanks, Sundew

More details.
In the lateral view (top left), there is a long seta seen between the front and middle femora. Around this seta there were some minute dark hairs that are not recognizable in the picture.

Dear Andrzej, can you see that tooth in the following pics (I can't)? For orientation, arrows point to the forelegs. I looked as closely as possible to the fore tarsi but did not detect any special structure. So perhaps it is not Suillia bicolor...
Regards, Sundew

It is Suillia bicolor ! Wink
The second picture shows a small yellowish spine (or tooth) at the end of fore tarsomere of I tibia.
Regards,
Andrzej

Ahhh - now I see this tiny thing! Besides, I did not know which part of the tarsus is the fore tarsomere, i.e., in which direction to count them (from claws upwards of from tibia downwards). Now I learned the first tarsomere (e1, metatarsus) is the one connected to the tibia, and here is also the tooth.
Many thanks, Andrzej! Till next Suillia,
Sundew
