Wow, you reached back to find this one, Thank you for your kind compliments, Sarah.
kozoga, your suggestion looks correct with respect to the wings, but I'm not sure because of the coloration of the abdomen. And the distinctive pink rear is not evident.
Many thanks, bayucca.
Possibly cannonball jellies?
Thanks for the help, Flavio (and nice to meet you, btw). Michael the ID is appreciated.
Thank you for the ID, DespinaTsafetopoulou .
Wow both species are so close. Because of the length of the antennae I'm more inclined towards Chrysanthia sp. Flavio, I will add it to the Portugal mission (my wonderful friend Antonio Ginja Ginja had told me about it before and it slipped my mind). In the meantime I will continue to research, but any clarification would be much appreciated.
This was the most attractive bee. Thank you, Flavio Oliveira for the prompt ID.
