A male Kurzenkoiellus cf. dasypygus to my eye. Beware because there is another similar species in Portugal, K. tephraeus. I never had a chance to study this second species. That is why I cannot be 100% sure of the ID.

Reinoud might be able to give some input into this...

Not really, i totally agree with Piluca. Bosak Hradsky mention tephraeus and studied the male for the first time (as i recall)but do not show pictures or drawings of genitalia. So we do not know what the difference exactly is. This specimen fits dasypygus really good. Just keep a tiny cf
