Hello!

I found this one (10-12 mm) yesterday evening at our house (northwest Germany). Could it have hatched from the exuvia below left (mostly Osmia bees there)?

In the gallery I have found no exact match. Could it be an Anthrax species?

freshly emerged female Anthrax anthrax, certainly from the adjacent exuvia.

Hello, David!

Many thanks! Then the pale dark colour of the wing markings is due to freshly emerging...
Best regards,
Jürgen
