The colour and size look more like L. australica. All species in the flavoviridis group are quite small.

australica females are about 9.5 mm and flavoviridis females 6.5 mm and there are other species of intermediate size and uncertain names, so your first choice is probably the best one.

Yes sorry I should have put the size on there, though not very good at estimating under 1cm! They were pretty small and bright metallic gold.
