Lars and Stephane, thanks a lot, it's a female Polietes lardarius cf meridionalis? I am almost shure!

Eh eh,
Polietes lardarius cf.
meridionalis would solve any problem ! It is either
P. lardarius or
P. meridionalis, 2 distinct species (though they are not so distinct in reality) ! The golden face speaks for
P. meridionalis, but it is necessary to see the colour of the anterior spiracle to be (more) sure.
