Who can help to identify?

Correct.
But apparently no Thereva, but Psilocephala s.l.

Lato - in the general/broad sense.

Lyneborg split the genus into several parts, but I didn't manage to grasp this, that's why sl.
(it probably is Pandeveillia, which used to be Psilocephala)

Hello Urs,

After all this time! But there is a resolution.
Lyneborg 1986 did indeed split Psilocephala into several genera. The big ones with the abdomen like this one belong in the genus Pandivirilia Irwin & Lyneborg 1981.
Lower part of frons with white pollinosity. Tergite 5 is white pollinose and 6 is entirely black. Also the tibia are reddish. That makes this Pandivirillia caesia.
Although more common in the higher parts of Europe Pandivirilia are very rare, nice find and nice photo's!
