There are two similar species but one has a pale first antennal segment, the other has thickened and spinose fore femora.

Sepedon femorata (with av-pv spines on fore femora known from south Spain.
Sepedon aenescens (pale first antennal segment) - the nearest place is my observation from South Turkey.
