I compared images of parryi, they all differ in: - 2nd spot on elytra not obviously larger than 1st or 3rd; - elytra shininig in posteriour half.

this is the best shot at top, not so good quality, thanks for your help

Might be, but Batocera parry has usually not a separated spot at that location and the spots are very regular. That's why I wanted to see the top of the beetle. Personally I am sceptic about B. parry (not parri).
