[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A small solitary wasp of the family Eumenidae. Symmorphus nests in wood cavities and hollow stems.
It is a synanthropic species (i.e. ecologically associated with humans) and readily accepts artificial nest sites.
The brood is fed with leaf-beetle (chryomelidae) larvae.
