Sphex ichneumoneus
Same size and shape as a normal paper wasp but the head and thorax have a golden color and the abdomen is divided into black and orange.
Found dying near a rock bed in my backyard.
Thats true haha, I just needed that step in the right direction and you definitly helped
I always HOPE that I am right ;-)... and I am always happy if people verify themselves and even happier if we came to the same result!
I think you are right, I looked at your link and it fits the description, thank you for the help.
Sphecidae, Sphecinae, Sphecini, Sphex sp. and look like being Sphex ichneumoneus. Please, verify!
