I had collected this specimen (and also two females) in summer from Iron Gates Natural Park, Sirinia Valley.
Attached photos of mounted specimen and its genitalia.
Thank you in advance, Amalia

There is no extension of the last pregenital sternite. But I think you are half right: it belongs to the large and difficult Machimus-Tolmerus complex.
