Netherlands, 2 Jan 2024 Observation: https://waarneming.nl/observation/336391858/ I believe this is one of the species with presutural acrostichals present? Wondering if this could be Phaonia gracilis? Edited by smol on 19-01-2025 14:58 |

Never mind about Phaonia gracilis, I believe the pre-alar is far too short for this one. It might rather be, P. rufipalpis but I have a hard time identifying the palps (which should be completely reddish yellow): Arista with longer hairs than its basal diameter, presutural acrostichals not strong and pre-alar much shorter than the 2nd notopleural, abdomen ground color, scutellum mainly in ground color, legs (except tarsi) reddish-yellow, longest hair of arista longer then the width of the 3rd antennal segment |
