In my opinion this is Megacephala euphratica but I'm not sure.

Hi Pawel , wow this is a fantastic macro. 'monster' indeed. amazing close in view of this beetles incredible face , I bet it was difficult to get so close to this beetle ? it reminds me of a tiger beetle which are very keen eyed predators...

great image , nice detail , point of view , color, , and composition , I also like the shallow depth of field.
