I think that it belogs to a genus endedn in -ancistrocerus, such as Euancistrocerus, Parancistrocerus, etc.
Yesterday in my garden, in a grape vine, Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain. 1'5 cm long less or more.

Some idea, at least of the genus?

This is not an Eumenid wasp but a Symphyta!

It should be a Tenthredo sp. (over 50 species here in Germany).

Thanks Juergen!!

Then is Tenthredinidae and probably Tenthredo. But slighly smaller than some Tenthredos that I've seen.

More ideas?

At least here in Germany I have seen Tenthredos from 8 mm (T. zonula) to over 20 mm (T. scrophulariae, livida etc.).
