Hello!

Also phtographed yesterday in Ostwestfalen/Germany. The first couple was found near Leucanthemum vulgare, but there were also thistles and other possible host plants around.

The second picture is of very bad quality, sorry! But perhaps can something be said anyhow? No idea of possible host plants, the couple was sitting on a tree leave.

Seems Oxyna has emerged and found by you photographers: Oxyna flavipennis.
