 It's not completely clear in the first photo, but it looks like this may have a Syntormon-type projection of the second antennal segment into the third segment (first flagellomere)

 I think it's Hercostomus, at least sensu lato.

 Dear Mihailo,

I agree with Stefan, it's definitely a Poecilobothrus, but not P. nobilitatus (see pale ventral side of scape = 1st antennal segment).
It's always interesting (read: important) to collect some specimens in order to get a reliable identification.
Cheers,
Marc

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
