Female Macquartia tessellum, to be more precise.
That is a surprise, this species is rare in the Netherlands.
Could you post the details for the record here or on waarneming.nl. ?

thanks

Theo

That is amazing Theo! The observation is here https://waarnemin...314173744/
It is a small stroke of sandy/grass. Let me know if you'd want more info.

It is a typical grassland species. I found it on airbase Soesterberg, but definitely very rare (but given climate change likely to become more common)
