Thank you Theo for the great help!

About Phytomyptera genus in the North Italy we have:

Phytomyptera nigrina
Phytomyptera bohemica
Phytomyptera cingulate
Phytomyptera stackelbergi
Phytomyptera vaccinii

but the genus Phytomyptera have the bare eyes, the subject in the photo have hairs in the lower part.

About Neoplectops genus it's present only in the South Italy with Neoplectops pomonellae but it have the bare eyes too.

Elodia genus, here we have Elodia ambulatoria and Elodia morio

The subject in the photo have only black air on the occiput (at least for what I can see), but it have a more long bristle (spine) at the mid tibia (Elodia genus).

I could make a chaetotaxy of the subject if it can help you (just because I have the HQ res of the photo) :)

thank you again for your help!
