Can this be a Sciapus platypterus, the kind we find the most in Holland, or must it remain a S. spec....?

The male of
Sciapus platypterus has segments 3 and 4 of mid tarsi white and broadened. If this is a male, as I think it is, it is not of that species.
I can't place it in the key to European species.
