Protaetia (Potosia) sp.
Can anybody help with ID?
I have these suggestions: Potosia caucasica, splendidula, fausti or angustata.
I found it on Carduus sp. with a lot of Potosia caucasica azurea and Netocia ungarica armeniaca

I think Protaetia (Potosia) angustata Germar, 1817
http://www.glaphyridae.com/Cetoniinae/Po_angustata.html
The color of the dorsal surface of the typical form of angustula is in general bronzed copper with the ventral surfacet with dark green, this according to the original description of Reitter. Sometimes the dorsal surface can be entirely blue or bronzed purple to purple light, with ventral part blue-violet with green glare (ab. eibesensis Reitter, 1902) or with the dorsal part green shining, blue-dark green to blue-black.

Yes, it looks like angustata, but I'm not sure. In Medvedev there is also indicated form ab. coerulescens.
