Trying to figure out this Phaonia female from Massachusetts, USA.

Photographed by Tom Murray on https://www.inatu.../224233790

Keying with Malloch (1922) and Hucket (1965) don't lead to anything conclusive. There are two very small hairs on the meron in front of the posterior spiracle. Body length is about 6.5 mm as shown. Can relate specific characters if needed or add other photos.

Maybe it can't be identified to lack of recent work in the Nearctic, but possibly it can be narrowed down.
