On the 2nd of March, I found a dipteran pupa in Barcelos, Portugal, and collected it.
It has finally been born, and I think it resembles a lot the male of Helina impuncta. Is that right?

I think it is Phaonia.
May be Ph.rufipalpis :o Palpi are yellow?
Pra absent/present?

Hi Nikita,
What do you mean with
Pra? I'm adding one more photo to try to show better the palps.

pra is "prealar seta" which can be found above the notopleural depression.
Thus, you can show us the same picture, slightly shifted towards the thorax...
