if it were a UK specimen i would look towards
Loxocera sylvatica?
My understanding is that this is a genus requiring more work?

Face with a black median strip.
I think also Loxocera sylvatica, do you agree?

No, sylvatica is much smaller.
Most Loxocera are straightforward and this indeed seems to aristata
One year ago, I posted a question on L. maculata, very similar to aristata.
Christophe, do you have a series so we can investigate the variability, or only one specimen ?

aristata.
