Elachiptera sp., Chloropidae. After the pictures impossible to identify the species. The distinctly yellowish tip of the scutellum with its widely separated apical bristles exclude the abundant E. cornuta and its undescribed sister species [compare my notes on other E. cornuta images]. E. breviscutellata Nartshuk has a shorter scutellum, sometimes slightly yellowish, too, with similar apical bristles.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
