Hi, found this male in my garden (Middle Franconia near deciduous forest) on 20190703 and I cannot find a similar one with "wasp waist"... Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks, Eric eklans attached the following image:  [43.83Kb] Edited by eklans on 07-12-2019 12:08 |

Thank you very much, clovis! Have you ever seen a similar deformation of the abdomen? Is it perhaps caused by a parsitoid? Regards, Eric Edited by eklans on 07-12-2019 13:01 |

It is gravid or their are bacterial spores which are mutualistic in them. |
