Good evening,
The Pimelia shown below is 22 mm long, and this size, exceeding 20 mm, should in theory make it a Pimelia grossa. However, P. grossa has strong elytral ribs, which is absolutely not the case for this specimen. So I would go more willingly for P. goryi sardea, with its very obvious elytral punctuation.
Please correct my analysis if I am wrong.

According with distribution of Pimelia in Sardinia, you might be right; I too have collected in that area this widespread subspecies. I send in mp the distribution image cause I can't find any url to link, probably gently sended to me by Piero Leo. :hi:
