I disagree. the femora are yellow in the new photo's, suggesting asiliformis

Unless you mean HIND femora I have to disagree with you. Otherwise I concur.

Yes, I meant the hind femora.

You are right, all femora should be either yellow or dark

So..... ?

I cannot find anything about leg colour, but the fact that the hairs on the backside of the head are whitish, pointing towards Chrysopilus splendidus...

so, six years later ...

Definitely NOT asiliformis.
Very interesting, quite likely splendidus with yellow hind femur.
