Hi Vladimir!
Beautiful pictures.
They are males of Hedychrum sp.
Unfortunately we cannot ID them for sure without examination of the mid tibia and genitalia.
Cheers
Paolo

Hi Vladimir,
yes, you're right,
very likely this it the female.
As for the male, we need to examine some features on the ventral surface of the abdomen for a correct ID.
Anyway there are only two possible species with this colouration: Hedychrum nobile (Scopoli) or H. niemelai (Linsenmaier).
Cheers
Paolo
