Another view showing the wing venation. Notice the little teeth along the front edge.

On second thought, I read somewhere that a spiny costal vein is typical of Suillia sp. How characteristic and unique can that be ? Philippe |

Thanks Kahis. With typical hindsight, I now realize that I photographed and posted a few weeks ago, another individual of apparently the same species, which was indeed tentatively identified as Delia sp (see my thread "Helina"0 The learning curve for me does not seem to be very steep, is it ? D'OH!! |
