You are right Chris! I have consulted Fauna Europaea and once again its distribution data are not so reliable.

Thanks @KostasZontanos. Catalogue of Life (http://www.catalogueoflife.org/col/details/species/id/870d3636022cf284ceca3ff8f42c69d3) has it for Greece. And it looks much more to P. fullo rather than P. boryi (http://www.virtual-beetle.com/polyphylla.html)

Great spotting Chris! I'm not sure that this is a P. fullo. This species is not recorded in Greece. Most probably this is a Polyphylla boryi (the only species of this genus recorded in Greece).
