Hello!

This one is from June-02 at a blackberry hedge (northwest Germany). Not too small (12-14 mm). Is it a Criorhina floccosa female. Thanks!

Hello, Amalia!

Many thanks! I had Criorhina ranunculi, berberina and asilica earlier this year, so this is now my fourth Criorhina species 2008. :D

Are we sure ?

The antenna are red, in floccosa they are blackish.
To me, it is berberina
