Dear Forum,

First thing, I am not an expert! I know a very few chrysidids, but Hedychrum rutilans is one of them, and I’m sure your pictures show this species. The colours and pattern are characteristic. No doubt there will be Philanthus nearby. Brian.

Thanks a lot, Brian, for your confirmation!

And yes, we have Philanthus around...

Hi,
It is Hedychrum viridiaureum (recently separated from rutilans see Rosa et al 2024).
The median part of the scutum is in part darkened.

Regards,
Jérôme
