I think
Cyzenis. In addition to the characters mentioned in the Central European key, the narrowly separated discal scutellar bristles are "unique to
Cyzenis within the Goniini" (O'Hara and Cooper 1992).

I agree. C. albicans. Note 1 proclinate orbital ( in both sexes).

I see 2 reclinate upper orbitals. Where is the proclinate orbital?

You are right, John. I thought I saw one in the first, but is actuallu an ocellar.
Still, it is albicans. The feature is not 100 %, it is rarely lacking.
