Hi,
This handsome yellow Platypalpus I met on a housewall today. I suppose it belongs to the difficult pallidiventris/cursitans group. The lateral shot might be helpful to say more...
Many thanks, Sundew

Hi,
Probably P. cursitans (Fabricius, 1775), although, it is quite late for this species.
Best regards,
Igor
