I found this one in the East of France today. Is it possible to identify it ? I think it may be S. fuscatus.

It is lateral view. I need to see top view. Orange genitalia with strongly curved "setae".

I'm sorry. I lost the specimen (working outside...) and therefore, I am not able to get another view.

OK. I am sure for 95% it is S. fuscatus. I would highly appreciate some specimens from France...
