The key of Reitter (Entomol. Nachrichten., 1899) in German language, is very difficult to me.
These two females of Leichenum, have this peculiar construction at the end of the elytrae. The male, have a normal elytral end.
Is it L. mucronatum Kust, "L. caudatum Rtt." or one of the two "known" European species ???
Length 4.7-5 mm.
Sorry for the quality of the photos,
George :hi: :hi:

Thank you very much Piero, :birra:
So in the Forum, we already have a quite good collection of Palaearctic Leichenum species.
Ciao from Greece, :hi: :hi:
