... and first one I can't cope with.

Hi everyone!

Yellow hairs on abdomen, but frons far too wide for H. distinguenda.

17 mm long.

10. May 2026, Germany, Upper Bavaria, Chiemgau Alps, northern slope of Mt. Hochfelln, about 1100 m a.s.l., coordinates 47.77019, 12.56260

Best greetings
Rupert

This is definitely lundbecki, nice work. So the other lundbecki is likely correct as well.
A more eastern species in Europe, pretty rare west of the Oder / Nyssa border, I'd say.
