Hello Jürgen and treebeard,

Thank you very much for ID.
It seems that I have overlooked the genus Brachypalpus, because this specimen looks much stouter than other females photographed some years ago. I`ll store it as Brachypalpus cf. valgus.
Here

is an old photo of another specimen from the same location photographed in June which should then be a Brachypalpus laphriformis with the dusted frons and dark arista (if nothing speaks against).

Best wishes,
Marion
