What is wrong witht he apical crossvein ?

It is interrupted !


By the way, the frontal tarsi are strongly flattened. This would not happen to be some weird Minthoini ???

I considered Lydina, the vertex seems pretty broad.

I think I caught one of these at the weekend here in southern England - so they are about Smile I just haven't had a chance to key it yet but there's not much else flying at the moment with that greenish tint to the body.
