Probably Tiphiidae or Scoliidae

Scoliidae, possibly Campsomeriella sp. male.

Agree with Henrik. Male Camsomeriella or Micromeriella.

Hello cyanoviridis, Camille, Henrik and Libor,

Thank you all for your reactions!
From internet I'm almost certain that it is the male of Campsomeriella thoracica, as it very greyish. I also found the female, with a very blueish colour at the end of the wings, but I can't upload it now, as I'm blocked to upload photo's. If possible I will upload them.

Regards,
Hedy
