It is some kind of Merodon. Wouldn't know which one... though it looks quite peculiar. Guess you didn't catch it? |

The species does look typical, but I am not familiar with Israeli Merodon... When I am back home I will give it another try, but no guarantees given! In the meantime, let's hope some Merodon-specialists visits your thread! |
