Is this a Sawfly of some sort? (No - ichneumonid, thanks Paul) Can anyone go further?

Thanks

I would have guessed a male ichneumonid. ;)

I am sure you are right Paul, I am not doing too well here!

I cannot find which one with my meagre resources, something along the lines of Ichneumon lautatorius (but not quite) maybe?

Ichneumon M. sarcitorius ssp. repetitor Kriechb.

En principe toutes les maculations devrait être jaunâtres au lieu de blanc, mais ce n'est qu'une photo !

Je suis en retard mais merci beaucoup Camille et al. I would say though, that to the eye and not just the camera, the stripes appeared white. Maybe an age change?
Cheers
