Can anyone identify this species from the mountains of Jahorina at about 1800m altitude?
Length is 11 mm (from end of elytra to eyes).

Ciao

Thank you two for identification!!
Apparently this is a difficult genus and species is not sure!? Perhaps I can give other photos of needed details.

Ciao

I would agree with Plinthus tischeri, however please post photos of male or female genitalia for more sure identification.

Není to Plinthus findeli?
