Distinctive small chrysid with red band on thorax bordered with gold. Any ideas on ID?

Its a Chrysis sp. in the succincta-group, and the bicolor-subgroup. Perhaps something close to C. grohmanni or similar?

Nice picture!

Hi Ian,

yes, Alex is right this is the female of Chrysis chrysoscutella Linsenmaier.

It belongs to the C. succincta group, but to the germari subgroup.

Cheers
