Hello,
I caught on june three male of Atylotus in subhalophile meadows.
I suppose it was latistriatus but in comparaison with my specimens of latistriatus I think it's more rusticus.
One specimen shown here, 13.5mm.
Femur are more than half grey, notopleural lobe grey.
First antennal segment less rounded and strong than in latistriatus.

No long hairs on front tibia (criteria not present in "The book" but find here : https://www.flick...9222196896 and https://www.flick...9587017873

With dark femurs, fulvus and loewianus can be excluded I suppose.
