Hello Eric,

sure? Looks more like Phaonia subventa to me (no light thorax sides).

Also we don't know, where in the world the photo was taken.

Hallo Jürgen, subventa must have at least 2 pairs of strong presutural ac, rufiventris - thorax is variable in both species and other differences are not clearly visible. If my memory serves me well (as well as Paul's database) progressdll's observations are from Belgium.
