The Netherlands, Voorsterbos, 9 August 2009.

Looks like H. crassicornis as in the gallery,
but could it be just a male of the very common H. pluvialis?

H. crassicpornis has all antennal segments completely black. Maybe H. pluvialis, but wait for Theo's final solution. Libor

Yes, I agree, male pluvialis for the reasons given.

Thank you for comments,
Perhaps worth to add a male to gallery
