Hello!

I cannot remember to often have seen Xylota in September, they are mostly active in late spring/early summer here (northwest Germany). Also these specimens were very small, much smaller than the typical X. segnis, only about 6 mm. On low vegetation at forest path.

Thanks a lot, Pierre-Yves! Seemed to have no well fed larvae this rainy summer...
