Could be a male Cistogaster globosa, but I don't see the antennae clearly enough on these photos. Cistogaster is smaller than Gymnosoma but this is hard to assess in a photo. The easiest feature in photos is that Cistogaster has very small antenna, compared to Gymnosoma. :)

There's no need for the cf. in the title, this one is dead sure
