This is a male of Allognosta vagans. I was puzzled by the silver abdominal spots at first, but realise now that they are just reflections. B)
The species has a wide Palaearctic distribution, from West Germany to Japan, and including Ukraine, Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, Slovakia and Poland, but I don't know of any records from Russia.
A good find! ;)
