Hi Piluca


I agree it should be Voriini and as far as I can tell (based on description), it agrees very well with Uclesia fumipennis. By the way, this genus is named after a place called 'Ucles" somewhere in Spain ! Most if not all Uclesia are extremely early spring species, so that makes sense as well.
Interesting to read that Mesnil compairs the abdominal pattern with that of Phorocera. If you forget about the head and the wings, that makes sense !
