Hi,
Lypha?

Photo on 23 April Kokkola Finland.
I took shots needling it.
Thanks.

Regards Pentti.

This is a weird one. First impression was Triarthria, but it is not.
The last picture (thanks !) seems to show that the ocellar bristles are reclinate.
Thart would be a big help.

Could you confirm this ?

It totally doesn't key out. Need to rethink this one.

Agree, it can't be Triarthria (arista doesn't have long segments) and doesn't look like Lypha (no large pteropleural and hid spiracle wrong). The overall impression to me is of the 'hairy' spring Phorocera (and similar taxa) but I'd need the specimen ... might have been useful to hook out the genitalia too.

Hi,
do you think it will be possible to know the species?

So, what about the ocellar bristles ?
Are they proclinate, reclinate or missing ?

Just to be sure: the eyes are hairy, right ?
