Is this Hedychridium buyssoni?

Postby briang » 16 Jun 2022 21:18

Val d’Arda (PC), N Apennines, Italy. 16 June 2022. This chrysidid appeared too far away for detailed images but I did not want to move and scare it away. The general structure looks like Hedychrum/Hedychridium. I cannot see detail of T3 which anyway looks very short. The colour pattern looks similar to Hedychridium buyssoni. Can I label it as this species, or is there a H. buyssoni group of species which cannot be separated on photos like this one? Sorry Paolo, I have several more questions but I’ll try and space them out a bit!

Hi!

Well, difficult to say, however it could be Hedychridium buyssoni.
Let's say that H. buyssoni and H. jucundum are the most probable ...

Many thanks Paolo, as always. That is close enough, based on one less than perfect photo!
