Hi Brigitte, I'm not an expert and in my humble opinion van Veen's "elongate" means that the
length of the 3rd segment is 2-3 times the
height (see his figure 405). This correlates to the image of the female in Falk's site (+ the black and pale hairs!). Van Veen describes mainly the males so we should wait for an expert to agree or disagree.
I'm confident that
if it's a
Heringia, it's not
heringi because of the antenna.
Not
pubescens: eyes dark haired.
Not
verrucula: eyes (hairs) sparse, inconspicuous and pale (?)
Falk: hairs more extensively pale in
latitarsis and more extensively black in
vitripennis.
remain:
brevidens and
fulvimanus?
