 Hi,

From the thick hind legs and small size (about 2mm) I think it is probably a beetle of the subfamily Alticinae. Photographed 20km West of Paris on a daisy.
Any idea of the genus/species?
Thanks for your help,
Cheers,
FRV

 Nitidulidae, probably Meligethes, species determination from only this photo is apparently impossible.
