I had lost hope that anyone would reply ... How sure are you? Unfortunately I have this picture only.
Thanks, best regards

The species of this genus are generally migrant. Maculation and colouration of the species are very variable. In Sardegna two species occur, italicus and barbarus. From you images a precise ID was not possible. Therefore, I used the name "italicus" for your example with doubt.
