Hello Kurt. Your beast come from what country?
In my opinion we sum in the subgenus Macroglenea.

You are right, Gérard.
It seems to me a female of Glenea (Macroglenea) elegans, though I have never seen this yellow ventral side...
Actually, I have never seen living specimens as well...

Hence, I think Glenea elegans as correct.

In my experience, yellow pubescence turns into white after death.
