Hello!
Is this
P. rufiventris? Very big (egg filled?) abdomen. Size of a normal house fly, found two days ago at a hedge (Ostwestfalen/Germany). Thanks in advance!

There is a high probability, yes. ;)

Thanks! But...: "high probability" means, there are similar, less probable species (?).

Phaonia subventa and
bitincta are similar.
I'm convinced this one is P. rufiventris (scutellum entirely reddish, seems to have at most only 1 presut. ac. and other reasons...).

Thanks, Stephane! Then I will remove the question mark in the subject. ;)
