Hello,

This looks like an Oedalea with its antennae and enlarged hind femur; as it has fully yellow legs with the exception of the hind tibia, would that make it an O. tibialis ?

Thank you very much for your help !

Great, thank you so much !
I think I can add it is a female, comparing its head against the Oedalea in the gallery looks straightforward.
