with this reddish scutellum is it all the same Mesembrina meridiana ?

Yes, the coloration is due to a flash effect. There is another
Mesembrina ,
M. intermedia, very close to
M. meridiana, but this is a rare species that is not supposed to be present in France (though it wouldn't be impossible to find it in the East). So I think
M. meridiana well more probable.
