Is it possible to tell genus and spieces of this female with body 7 mm?
Photos from 9 June 2016 Icktjärn 62 N, E 17 Ångermanland, Sweden.
Thanks for your help in advance

7 mm. really ? Should be more like 10.
In any case: female Appendicia truncata.

In North America
Appendicia is a synonym of
Panzeria.

Yes, I know.
It is a subjective synonym, as they say...
I have no final opinion on the matter, hence, I am being conservative.
Clearly, Zimin oversplitted the group, but reducing all to one genus might be overlumping ?
