I agree with Dexiinae ... do you have any photos that show the head or face from the side or front? :)

HoHO, these are two individuals, upper female, lower male.
Both have topcel stalked, so Estheria (indeed: Dexiini).
The stalk is rather short and the scutellum predominantly reddish, which strongly suggests E. cristata.

Thank you Theo,
Shame on me ! I pixellised both of them on the same flowers, in the same minut, ...
This is the second time you identify this species for me (first time from Remouchamps (B)). I'll try to recognize it next time.
