Machimus arthriticus has bristles on the underside of femur 1 and has no projection or a tuft of hair on hind edge of eighth sternite. This one has no bristles on the underside of femur 1 and does have at least a tuft of hair on the edge of sternite eighth. Besides that M arthriticus has for a large part whitish bristles on back half (behind transverse suture) of scutum. It has also for a large part yellowish white bristles on legs. This one seems to have mainly black bristles. http://waarneming.nl/foto/view/5197450

So it is something else, with Engel the nearest i get is fimbriatus.
