Size 10-11 mm.
I thought it to be Sophronica, but failed to find the species name despite its prominent appearance.

Exactly! Sophronica bifoveata Aurivillius, 1914.
The description fits very well, except the size. It is 8 mm according to Breuning, but all three specimens I have now are 10-11 mm.

There are a few other misleading theses in the Breuning's key, which hinder identification.

Thank you, Jérôme, for your help.

Bonsoir

Recherchez du côté de Sophronica bifoveata Aurivillius ? A priori il s'agit de cette espèce.
Je ne vous ai pas oublié concernant les Apomecyna ! Je vous tiens au courant ...
