Moscow region, 22 july, 6-8mm.
I hope that this time Argyra may be species level ID, both keys I have lead to same answer.
Correct?

I've got reply from Igor Grichanov. Summary is:
" Yes, legs colour is exactly for A. leucocephala, but longtitude of 3-d antennae segment more for A. argyria. Leg's colour is very variable, so we have to look at more trustable pattern, so Argyra argyria."
