This black-legged species with rather short wings is new for me. I think it looks like Machimus arthriticus, but it has completely black tibias.

Slovakia, Banska Bystrica, 450 m.a.s.l., calcacerous meadow, 17.06.2018

Thank you in advance

Matej

It is a Dysmachus species maybe something like (cf)) praemorsus.
