Hi kurt,

Yes, Chyliza vittata (Psilidae) :D
It misses the strong dorsocentrals, vibrissal and fronto-orbital bristles typical for Clusiidae.

Greetings,

Unless I've missed the mark badly, it's the only European Chyliza in which the thorax is mainly yellow with black markings.
Do check my key at http://www.microp...o/node/235 and let me know what you think

Thanks for your comment Darwyn.
My earlier find of vittata where had more quite more black on front of thorax.
