Hi,

I think, Plecoptera.

Thanks Juergen, but our Plecopteraexpert Jari Ilmonen said, that Plecoptera has always two or zero thorns in back (sorry my non-professional terms), but this has one.
Let's continue searching.

This is certainly Hymenoptera, but I cannot place it in a family.

I think this is a Symphyta, Siricidae, and looks like a male of Xeris spectrum.
Greetings,
Henrik

Congratulations Henrik. You are absolutely right.

Finlands best expert in Hymenoptera, Juho Paukkunen, confirmed it.
Thanks for all.
