Oscinella maura (Fallén, 1820), Chloropidae. A very peculiar Oscinella species with its thick white 3rd article of the arista and its brownish wings. O. albiseta (Meigen, 1830) is a junior synonym. The main host grass is Dactylis glomerata, but larvae develop also in grass species in the genera Bromus, Festuca, Holcus, Triticum, Clinelymus.
