Alleculidae Comment: Hi pepik, this is genus Hymenalia. In former times belonging to Family Alleculidae, nowadays subfamily Alleculinae, belonging to Family Tenebrionidae. Maybe it is Hymenalia rufipes, which is also occuring in Centraleuropa, but I guess it isn't. There are nine species of this genus occuring in Europe.
