Phasia hemiptera - but I'd say it's a female (it doesn't have the wing-shape and colour of the males and it has a piercer)  |

The body colour does seem to be darker than average specimens but this isn't relevant to the keying procedure. In central Europe any Phasia with orange hair on the thoracic pleurae are Phasia hemiptera Females don't have strong wing markings. |
