Today, my garden, Kapellen, Belgium. It looks like the Eutolmus rufibarbis I saw a while ago. Is it this species or something completely different? Thanks in advance!

In everything Machimus cingulatus but strangely enough it seems to lack the black spots on fore and mid tibia? Eutolmus legs are entirely black with black bristles and some differences with this creature.

For Belgium that means Machimus/Tolmerus atricapillus female.
