Parafrontalia has a narrow stripe all the way down to the antenna. Nudifrons?

This Gymnosoma was nudifrons after all. I send the fly to Zeegers who had kindness to look closer at it. This is his answer: " I had a second good look. As said, based on the frons, your specimen is intermediate. So we have to try other features. These are only 90 % reliable. But if you combine these (totally dark scutellum, darkened wing, form of genitalia), all point towards nudifrons. SO, I am inclined to think that this is an aberrant female of G. nudifrons. In any case, it cannot be considered a definitive (or probable) rotundatum. So, false alarm, after all, but it is not weird that I was misled by the pictures !" |
