Last Sunday at Vallibierna's Valley, Aragon, Spain. Medium Pyrenees (about 1500 meters). In flowers of Arctium lappa. About 4-5 mm long. What species can be? Thanks |

Oxyna, probably parietina. Has no binding with the Arctium, probably only foraging on it. John |

Oxyna parietina not cited from Spain. There are cited here O. flavipennis, O. nebulosa and O. obesa. Can be one of these species? |

It looks to be O. flavipennis Loew. presutural dorsocentrals are not visible well, and it is my guess onlu, as the yellow coloration of the body is more characteristical for O. f. males. Hardly it is obesa, which is known to me from the holotype only.
