Dear Valter,
This looks like the female of Poecilobothrus chrysozygos. The only difference I find with Belgian specimens is the entirely pale hind tibia in your specimen, whereas this is apically darkened in my specimens.
Cheers,
Marc

Dear Marc, this difference is very essential in addition to entirely yellow hind coxa and somewhat different wing venation. I would not say this female belongs to
chrysozygos.

Dear Igor,
I would, indeed, be very interested to examine the specimen to verify my assumption ("looks like"). I would certainly not treat this information as valid, until confirmed by this examination.
Cheers,
Marc
