Look at the proportions of antennal segments , their shape. Antennae break in the middle of their length like in others Stratiomys species. The wings are parallel to the body, very stiff.
Look at the pictures, you will see clear differences between these distinct species.

Incredible.
I was thinking 'One could easily take this for Stratiomys longicornis'......
Excellent thought, which I totally ignored.
