Whatever it is, that it is not.

Did you think of the odd Linnaemyia like L. lithosiophaga ?

That is a very good question. Need to check my collection. Probably not.

By the way, has this specimen been in alkohol ?
The legs are very red

Linnaemyia was very close.

It is Petagnia subpetiolata.

Theo, you were right. It is Linnaemya, the basiscosta is yellow. It is the female Linnaemya lithosiophaga,
the odd Linnaemyia.
In the same spot I collected the male. I also have a female and male Linnaemya frater from another spot. So I can tell the difference between the females of the two species.
