Hi Lutz,
About your foto - picture,
and question:
I only have had this single visitor at the very hot summer day. I need your help, what kind of insect could it be?
I think it is a parasitic wasp - Gasteruptiidae ichneumon … or at least a family of the insect.
For the correct name we have to look further.

Hi Luc,
thank you for your help and reply. I have thought that it could be some kind of dragonfly. But you are right it must be an Ichneumon wasp (in German: Schlupfwespe). With the help of google I have found some similar wasps wich belongs to the subfamily Poemeniinae. I have never seen such a animal before!
Thank you very much for your help!
