I'm afraid it is Machimus (Tolmerus) atricapillus. Thighs have too much black, facial gibbosity too large and beard too black for N. pallipes.

Ok! Thorax was not convincing me at all, but the sholouette briefly appeared like the other one, so guessed was the same.

Yes, thorax too, colour and pattern are different but more difficult to describe. If you guess please add a cf. : )
