Do you know the host plant of the adult? Perhaps Eryngium?

On Daucus sp. flower(I think).The flowers on which you can find Graphosoma lineatum.
But certainly not Eryngium.

I was thinking to Anthaxia bettagi, but usually it lives only on Eryngium (both larva and adult).

A possible candidate is Anthaxia (Haplanthaxia) ursulae, but I found it much more on the East. I must ask for help to my friend Daniele Baiocchi. I'll let you know as soon as possible.

Please, contact Daniele Baiocchi (email in a private message I sent you just now) to know how to identify your specimen.

After I posted some detailed photos he responded:
Daniele Baiochhi:
In my opinion it could be a male of Anthaxia umbellatarum. Specimens of umbellatarum with such a bright green colouration are not frequently seen...
