From the garden today, something rather rare, I believe 🙂
It's a leaf-rolling sawfly, genus Pamphilius, but many of the more common ones are not good matches.
After much searching, I think I've found it – the belted rose spinner (P. inanitus; 🇩🇪 Rosengespinstblattwespe).
Only five prior observations in Germany on iNaturalist 😱
