Yes, a male. Without closer details it is dfficolt to say if it is N. submaculosa or N. flavescens

Hello Carlo thank you for the Answer of Nephrotoma submaculosa/flavescens. I tried to enlarge the head area.
Kind regards Karl.

Still difficult, but I'd vote for flavescens

Hello Carlo thank you for the Answer. I will then take Nephrotoma cf. flavescens. Maybe I can take a better picture next year.
Kind regards Karl
