Photographed at Passo Pura near Ampezzo (Udine, Italy) at 1425 m, on Angelica flowers. It presents a combination of characters that I cannot reconcile using the keys: fairly long 1st and 2nd aristomeres, a long costal spine, a very weakly angled bend of vein M, and extremely long bristles on the tibiae. Additionally, it seems to lack apical scutellar bristles. It closely resembles
Eriothrix prolixa, but several details do not match.
Thanks in advance for any help!"
