Could be. Solieria and Dinera can be very similar at first glance. The vertex is rather narrow, which excludes the most common Solieria. So I can't tell. Theo |

Hi, Yea, this is a tough one. I originally ID'd this as Dinera grisescens, but its clearly not. If I see right, the mid tibia has two ad's, which doesn't fit to Solieria and the head doesn't look like it as well (to me). And it seems a bit too big (when compared to the flower). Quite likely would be new to me. How do Dexia, Aphria spp. and Stomina tachinoides look like? Would be nice to know this one!  Jaakko Edited by Jaakko on 15-08-2008 09:49 |

We got it all wrong. Look on the flower below the head, you can see a third frontleg -> Prosena siberita. Theo |
