Yes. looks like a female X segnis, but not 100% sure!
Could eventually be X. tarda, but the picture doesn't show the details we'd like to see.
Greetings,

I have two more very similar images on my website. They probably do not add too much extra.

What details should be definitive?

Thx for the help for Susan as well for the help with recent threads. I'll have plenty more.

If it comes down a choice of X. segnis and X. tarda, then it certainly is the former.
