If it is 10mm (even if it is somewhat smaller, say 8  ), it is a female H nobile. H, niemelai female is definitlely smaller, below 6mm, otherwise inpossible to distingush by photos, since the distinguishing character is the shape of the tip of the last sternite.Greetings, Henrik Edited by piros on 12-08-2017 20:12 |

Thanks a lot, Henrik! Yes, it was clearly larger than 6 mm. It was one of the biggest cuckoo wasps I've seen. Markus |
