Hello,

as Ectophasia crassipennis is abundant here these days, I thought of this species at first, when I saw the completely orange abdomen. So my second thought was Ectophasia oblonga.
But at home at the PC I noticed the orange hairs atr the thorax sides. So a worn Phasia hemiptera?

On cow parsley next to a small creek (northwest Germany).
