Found on a meadow in Wienerwald (Vienna) in May.
Genus or species ID possible?

All requests are from the urban area of Vienna, if not otherwise stated.

My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.

To me it looks like Aphrostema femala. Check the wing venation - it is not clearly visible in the pictures.

Thanks Jan, your suggestion seem good. See this photo:

I did some search, but I almost found nothing about that genus, also not how many species could be found in my area

Hm, wing venation (pterostigmal cell) does not seem to support Aphrostema...
Hopefully, hymenopterists would provide the determination.

Hi,

looks like a female Arge rustica to me (see confirmed specimen below), but I am no expert.
