Slovakia, Banská Bystrica, 14 June 2024, mixed forest, the base of damaged Silver fir, 650 m.a.s.l., Rhagio of the "normal size". I am quite sure that it is R. scolopaceus but the wing pattern and yellow femora look quite strange for me. Is it within a variability of R. scolopaceus?

Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately, there was not enough light, my other photos are of low quality.

Spotted wings, eyes are touching = male R. scolopaceus. The species is rather variable in color.

The strongly elongated antennal tip, esp. In males, is highly distinctive.
