 Looks very much like Megaphorus megachile, but I don’t think this species is present in Europe.
Who can help?

Location: near Neo Petritsi, Kerkini Lake region, Eastern Macedonia, Greece.

Thank in advance.

 A male Promachus sp. Promachus leoninus to my eyes. Genus is sure but for species, it is only a possibility. I don't know much of this genus. Wait for orher opinions, please.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
