Clitellaria ephippium (Stratiomyidae) female. Larva is found in Lasius fuliginosus nests. I don't know its status in Austria, but it is apparently extinct in Britain - now seen only in the wildest dreams of hallucinating dipterists. :( Wow! Wow! and again Wow!
It was considered extinct in the Netherlands as well, but it has turned up over the past 10-15 years...
