Thanks for help,

Hello,

I think the kind that's for sure ! However it seems that it is E. it is better to wait for the experts. It's a female !

It is a antennae yellow, scutellum with yellow hairs, hind tarsus yellow. It looks to match!Smile

There seem to be black hairs on the disc of the scutellum. Combined with the rather narrow yellow bands over the tergites, the yellow antennae, the dusting on the frons, I would make this E. nitidicollis.
