Last Monday I go to high mountain (Batisielle's Lakes, Huesca, Aragon, Spain, abut 1800 meters high) to find some alpine insects. This one was near a small lake (in a wood bridge). Resembles Laphria but is smaller (about 3 cm long) and much more hairless.

There are some other Laphria species in this area, related to L. flava, but different in the shape of genitalia. A second problem is the lack of a revision. So you aren't able to determine it on species level at the moment. Yours

Thanks Dysmachus! At least I have the genus, I don't knew if it was Laphria or not. It was lesser than the other Laphria that I uploaded at the same day...
