I think it is a Parnopes grandior but am I right? I don't know if there are other Parnopes species here. Today, Alpi Marittimi, very large (I think more than 13mm) in a colony of nesting Bembecinus tarsata (id by Christian Schmid-Egger).
Kind regards,
Pietsje

Hi Pietsje,
yes, you're right, it's a female of Parnopes grandior Pallas.T
There's only one species in W Europe.C
Cheers

It is amazing species, unfortunately it doesn´t live in our country.
