Definitely a female Ectophasia but I'm not sure if females can reliably be identified from photos ... one for Theo again  Your season is well advanced there - good to see so many nice species |

Even I can't tell these crassipennis from oblonga from pictures, they are very similar. It's not leucoptera, see recent thread or gallery on that female. Theo |

In this place, I photographed crassipennis and leucoptera only. I visit this place regularly, I indeed hope to find oblonga male Thank Theo, thank Chris |

Oblonga male is unmistakable: its abdomen is very elongated (what a surprise) and moreover very red (not orange). It resembles some Lygaeidae (its host !) Theo |
