I don't think it's P. trimaculata - for me it looks like a female P. laeta.

This female has crossed interfrontals, trimaculata and laeta have not.
What is it - I don't know.

Ok, difficult, but it should be some Phaonia at least?

Among the ~70 Phaoniae from the CE Manual there are only a handful with interfrontals. Eliminating the yellow legged, those with 3 dc and the southern ones: remains Phaonia gobertii and wahlbergii?

The likeness to those two don't look great, but my knowledge is poor. Maybe stop at Phaonia sp.
