Difficult to see other characters properly, but the abdominal pattern seems to direct towards Paraplatypeza bicincta, which might be a species new to Germany. If you see more, please collect and send them to me!

Thanks a lot, Paul and Michal! Very interesting. But I am afraid, there will no big chances to find more of them in the next time. Weather is changing rapidly... :|
