This dead wasp was drifting on the water of our garden pond on the fringe of the hillside area of the Eifel in West Germany on April 26, 2019. I detected several tiny insects that were leaving the body of the dead wasp at the rear end and climbing about just above the water surface. To me they look like Xenos vesparum. Your help would be appreciated.
