Hello Insectforum,

Last December (12th 2005) I found this Ectemnius species (If I'm right..) in the window-ledge of a house in Weesp. I took it with me and looked many times to it but I didn't find the right determination yet..

Meanwhile I took some picture's of it.
From head till backside I measure 10 mm.

It looks like Ectemnius Lapidarius to me, looking at the yellow bandings on the abdomen.


Do you have a suggestion?, please tell me!

regards, Robert Heemskerk
