Hello,

I observed this Chrysididae the 7 of July in Sangatte in the north of France. Can it be a Holopyga ? What do you think ?

Cordially Maxime

Hi Maxim,

yes, you're right :ok:

it looks like Holopyga generosa, but in South of France there are other similar species and I cannot tell you more based on the pictures.

Cheers
Paolo

ooppps :doh:

sorry, right, north of France.
Well, Holopyga generosa it's the most reliable ID, but it's always better to check them under the microscope.

Cheers
