Hello! I've found this pretty bug in Bernasque, Aragon, Spain. in the Pyrenees at about 1100 meters high. The bug sizes about 8-9 mm long and was in a prairie. I think that can be an Alydidae nymph... but I have a picture of an Alydus nymph and it looks very different, and Camptopus have curved tibias....
