Hello Pentti,
a photo of the Scutellums and postalar setae would be also helpful.
I must here always think on D. obliterata, but I am not an expert.

Hi,

Two postalar setae, if present in a Dichetophora specimen, are sitting very close together and both pairs of them nearly in a horizontal line with prescutellars. Nevertheless there seems to be a second European species in this genus with only one postalar but not represented in Scandinavia.

I would add that
D. oblitera has bicolor femora (well marked red tip), and a shorter, less pointed 3d antennal segment.
