Hello Frantisek !!!
It is very interesting !!!
It seems as a member of Tanymecina subtribe, probably genus Cycloderes.
There is an old document, from this I have only the first 2 parts:
Antoine, M., 1949: Notes d' entomologie marocaine XLIX Les Cycloderes du Maroc. Mem Mus Nation Hist Nat : 73-132
Here you are (pages 73-96) :

and

all the best,

There is recorded more than 60 species in Morocco :o :o :o
I am happy that I have some representative from this genus in my collection
Thank you very much George

However, at present this is just a guess. Maybe will be good to having a photo of "profile", to show the fringe of hairs at the tip of pronotum and to confirm the inclusion in Tanymecina. The claws are free ???
I am very curious to read the comments from some other members of the forum.

Yes, I know that it was only suggestion :)
I looked at http://www.coleo-net.de/coleo/texte/curculionidae.htm and so I already know what detail you want to see :idea:

OK great photos !!!
So, this was a good step, we are in the right Genus and apparently we have also the Subgenus (due to size of the insect and the lack of a transverse groove behind the eyes).
Probably, we must should stop here for now: Cycloderes (s. str.) sp.
