Mid March in a park in Vienna - Periscepsia or Wagneria or some other genus?

Yes, it is a Wagneriini (are these considered Voriini these days ?) Very difficult to say more. But Ramonda (either as genus or as subgenus of Periscepsia) are by far the most common. Theo |

I think I can see >2 upright bristles on scutellum - to rule out Periscepsia carbonaria. And no discal bristles on tergites -> Wagneria?

I dont think you can assess the discal setae. Ockhams first hypothesis is Ramonda Theo |
