:welcome: Mihailo!

Nice picture of chrysidid on Euphorbia flowers!

It is a specimen of Chrysura, but from this view it's not easy to say which one.
Do you have other pictures?

All the Best

Nice to see the season is starting again!

With that triangular metanotum and fine punctation on the first tergite I'd guess Chrysura trimaculata, especially since its so early in the season,but there are perhaps more species that fits these two characters in the region? Paolo should know, as always ;)

Hi All,

Alex is right, Chrysura trimaculata.
The other possibility was Chrysura refulgens, which is very common and also flying in this period. However the general habitus and hairs on head and thorax are diagnostic.

Cheers
