Something like Chrysura hybrida ?

I do not think so, I found it smaller and thinner

Could it be a Spintharina versicolor, perhaps a male? But not very confident; haven't seen a chrysidid for months...

Thanks Brian, when I saw it I thought that it may be a Spintharina of some type.

this is Chrysis gracillima aurofacies, Spintharina is much broader and not as contrastingly coloured
