Megaphthalma pallida? Dark longitudinal stripes down the dorsocentral rows, yellow antennae, 1 pair of strong bristles near the tip of the scutellum. Just practicing (aka guessing after reading a few descriptions Pfft) really, so Nikita's opinion would be welcome. I don't really think my ID has much chance of being right.

It is Norellisoma (Megaphthalma has not such a strong spines on f1).
Most probably N.spinimanum.
