I usually refrain from attempting to ID these, but this one strikes me as quite different, and it seems to have only 3 post-sut dc, so how far can it be IDed?

The black tegula and very yellow second antennal segment strongly S. paludosa.

Thanks Theo,
I took a different route as I could only see 3 post-sut dc's, and the 3rd antennal segment seems to be wider than the fore femure, which shoulc exclude paludosa according to Tschorsnig's key
