I have tried to determine but I have not found anything, it is probably a female.
You can have some more information from these photos?

Hello Nikita,
Thank you very much!

What are the characters to be taken into account for the identification of the species?

Phaoninae, because ...Phaoninae.
t3 without pd in apical 1/3, abdomen with spots - Helina,
t3 with pd near base, yellow tibiae - H. reversio - also, because it is very common species.
