I received this from Spain recently and it keys to Eriothrix but doesn't satisfactorily follow any of the species in the Central European key - can anyone see where I might have gone wrong? Smile

It is dated 27.vii.2008 and from Galicia, Spain.

EDIT: to summarize:
- antennal bases are close together
- m-cu to the bend is shorter than the bend to the wing edge
- R5 is open
- humeral callus appears to just have 4 bristles - no inner anterior one
- frons is about 0.5x width of an eye
- in addition to a row of bristles there are a few extra bristles behind the head

and there I get lost Sad
