Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Stenopogon elongatus? From Hungary

I photographed and collected this Asilid near Sándorfalva, about 12km north of Szeged, Hungary, on 04_08_2019.
Using Engels key, it keys out straight at Stenopogon elongatus. However, it has some features that do not quite mach the the specimen illustrated in
van den Broek & Álvarez Fidalgo (2017):
HERE

Red color is entirely missing in the thorax, restricted to the distal femure and tibia of L1 and L2, and to the "knee" of L3. External genitalia is also mostly black.
Tergites 3-6 are redish-brown dorsally.

Cell M3 is just closed at the margine (not stalked).

(According to Fauna Europaea, Stenopogon elongatus is present in Hungary, bit it must be fairly rare.)

Can someone help in ID-ing this guy?
