I'd say C. viduatus, looks like the female has just a small square black spot on the 2nd tergite.

I agree with Kahis, though the spot on the female is pretty large for viduatus, at least for us Central-Europeans.

The Netherlands in the Central Europe? :-) But my true Central European divaricatus from CZE have the spot much smaller...

Libor, maybe you wrote 'divaricatus' by mistake.
It is clearly not divaricatus, since the tibiae are reddish.

And 'Central' Europe in the latitudinal sense: not northern, not southern
