Hi Manuel!

This is a Chrysis belonging to the ignita group.
In fact, it has four visible teeth on the anal margin.

But I think that you took the pictures of two different specimens. Isn't it?
I have no specimens for comparison with me now. However it could be Chrysis sculpturata.
I will confirm later.

Cheers
Paolo

:slurp: Grazie Paolo ! Although the pictures were taken in the same place and time, It's possible they come from two different specimens. I'll never forget that Chrysis key, I hope.
