Pierre Duhem : France : Saint-Sornin : 17600 : 02/07/2024
Altitude : 20 m - Taille : 7-8 mm
Réf. : 347593

Initially, I thought it was P. lugubre, but the humeral calli are not yellow-reddish.
Does this critter ring a bell?
Thanks you in advance.

I would think Platystoma lugubre. Val - any thoughts?

P. lugubre, no doubts.
Look at its the very characteristic mesonotum pattern.
