The short answer is yes.
Quite likely C. brassicaria. We had a strong influx in NL last year ( see Nederlandse Faunistische Mededelingen) en I don’t think the dutch / Saxon border would have stopped them :)

Thank you very much for confirmation and for the tip to the "Nederlandse Faunistische Mededelingen". I couldn't find the current script about the influx of C. brassicaria, but all the articles from 2016 downwards, which is really a "treasure chest" I still have to explore...
