Today I saw this specimen in my garden in Belgium. It looks like a Chrysis ignita, but what about this dark spot on the abdomen? Can someone help me to identify?
nice shot. You're right, it belongs to the Chrysis ignita group. The abdomen seems to be really darken, but I cannot say more. Did you collect the specimen?
No I did not collect the specimen, but I see it regularly. I'll try to take pictures from different angles, or should I go binocular? Unfortunately, I don't have the equipment
