Burrowing wasps of the Psenini tribe

This is the second year these wasps have been nesting in flower boxes on my balcony. Last year there were a few of them, but this year they just flew in flocks. They appeared around the end of May, but now they are almost invisible. They catch some green stuff, probably cicadas. Identified as Mimumesa atratina(F. Morawitz 1891) (if anything messed up correct, photos of the muzzle of the face and srgr. attached at the bottom).
