Please let us know the locality of your find. This male is resting on Inula, but not associated with the plant... The thorax pattern, however, fits X. pedissequum! So you are right.

I thank You.
Sorry that I forgot the locality, it is a garden in Southern of Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

Greetings from there
