I´m I right with Neoitamus and perhaps socius this time?

Photos from 15 august 2007 at Grötom, Norasundet 62,57N 17,36O Ångermanland, Sweden.

Thanks for your help in advance

Regards

Sorry, this isn't a Neoitamus. This genus is easily recognisable by the fact that the tergites 1-5 are dull, whereas from tergite 6 on the tergites are shining. So females have a quite long ovipositor.

Your foto shows a Tolmerus female.

Greetings, Danny
