Hello,
I found this specimen in Baumberge (Berlin; 52.599550, 13.227641) at 16-Jul-2022.
Would it be possible to determine the species?
I assume Chrysis bicolor or Chrysis illigeri.
Thank you and best regards
Frank

should be the latter, when I see specimens with these olive green and bronze red colours it always seems to be C. illigeri, the wide shiny interstices on tergite 2 in the last picture also points towards it
