This Phaonia was taken from a lowland heath/bog site in East Yorkshire, UK this week. I keep getting through the key to the area of erronea/falleni, but I can't get either of those to fit properly, so suspect I have gone wrong somewhere. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Fantastic...thank you, Nikita.
I can immediately see where I went wrong in the key...it has 4 post-sutural DCs on the left side, but had I looked on the right side, only 3. I went down the 4 post sutural DC route. Lesson learnt!!
