By gaster color, it may be a female of Cerceris sabulosa, the most common Cerceris species in the mediterranean area. But there are some similar species, and the whole species group is difficult to identify.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol
