Hello, it is a Stichopogon sp. something near elegantulus, I don't dare to say more :-)

If I am not mistaken, antennae are entirely red, wich suggest S. scaliger. Stichopogon chrysostoma is also said to have red antennae, but that sp. appears to be missing from the Ukrainian fauna, the nearest published records being from the Lower Volga Region and Cyprus :)

It is a start and it wouldn't be strange if chrysostoma is present in Ukraine

Thank you very much for your help!
Antennas are red from the outside and gray from the inside.

All of these shots show S. scaliger (male), IMO.

Despite not being obedient, great pictures!
