Hi John

We don't have Microchaetina over here.

It agrees with Chaetoria stylata in my collection;
* long third antennal segment
* facial ridge with bristles
* erect apical scutellars - as you well spotted
* wing venation: stalk, appendix to bend
* large nimbers of setulae on vein R4+5, up to crossvein r-m
*lack of discal bristles on tergites
* colouration of thorax and tergites.

So, to me, it is a match.
It seems this might be the first record for Spain !

Need to work on that.
