Location: Hungary Size: ~2 - 2,5 cm? Date: 02-06-07 Habitat: Meadow Substrate: Euphorbia sp. I have never seen such a green eyed wasp. It was very active and moves swiftly on Euphorbia. Many appreciate for any idea.

Its a Tachyphex or Tachytes male (Sphecid wasp, subamily Larrinae is correct), a more detailed identification is difficult. The green eyes will disappear in dead an dryed specimens. Christian www.galerie.hymis.eu |

I have already registered in your website (hymis) but I do not know how can I upload any images for the gallery. I have got many images from Hungary depicting unidentified Hymenopteras. By the way I have not found any Sphecid wasp in your gallery. |

Hello eguzki, we haven't yet a forum on www.hymis.eu. It's in preparation... You may send photos directly to me (christian at bembix.de), but not too large files, because i have only a slow Email acess here (not more than 3-4 MB/mail). Otherwise you may use this forum, or www.entomologie.de, or http://insektenfotos.de/forum/; for posting, I visit all forums frequently. They both are in german lagnuage, but english is not a problem. Why did't you found Sphecids? We have a lot. Try www.galerie.hymis.eu, bilder, Aculeata, Sphecidae / Crabronidae. Sphecids recently belong to 3 families (also Ampulicidae). regards, Christian |
