Moved from Three-banded Scoliid Wasp.

Not D. trifasciata - note that the face only has a yellow ʌ mark rather than being entirely yellow. Note as well that the abdominal markings are paler. It would also be expected that male D. trifasciata would have much broader stripes on the scutellum and postscutellum.

Males - Campsomeris trifasciata
The yellow color on the tibia of the middle legs rules out the closest look-alike species in your area, C. plumipes. The other three images are also male(s).
