Thanks.

Unfortunately google gives me nothing, so Phimodera sp.

Hope somebody knows details, the things near eyes on shield are so distinctive, that somebody
surely knows what species is that.

Trochanters without a tooth-like projection, that means it most likely is Phimodera flori.

Are you sure it's not a Podops inuncta (Pentatomidae) considering the front corners on scutellum?

I mean the front corners on thorax :). This Pentatomidae species has a large scutellum like the Scutelleridaes.
