Species ID ok? Very worn, so I wondered if the pre-sutural pollinosity was lost in the centre to give a
vagabunda
-like appearance.
Vienna, early May
Very few records of that species in Austria

Yes, it could be
P. vagabunda
, but it's a very worn one that complicates the decision about the dark marks on scutum/abdomen and I cannot see the 2 inner posthumeral bristles. I would file it as
P. cf. vagabunda
.

Thanks Eric!
Only now I realized that I had requested an ID on this one before, with johnes81 providing the initial ID as
P. vagabunda
