Netherlands, 2 Jan 2024 Observation: https://waarneming.nl/observation/336391858/ I believe this is one of the species with presutural acrostichals present? Wondering if this could be Phaonia gracilis? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited by smol on 19-01-2025 14:58 |

Never mind about Phaonia gracilis, I believe the pre-alar is far too short for this one. It might rather be, P. rufipalpis but I have a hard time identifying the palps (which should be completely reddish yellow): Arista with longer hairs than its basal diameter, presutural acrostichals not strong and pre-alar much shorter than the 2nd notopleural, abdomen ground color, scutellum mainly in ground color, legs (except tarsi) reddish-yellow, longest hair of arista longer then the width of the 3rd antennal segment |

The palps here are black. |

I think the pre-alar is strong. Check the dorsal view. Immediately behind the suture, middle to outside, weak to absent acrostichal, dorsocentral, intra-alar, supra-alar. The first postsutural supra-alar is the pre-alar. |

Appreciate the feedback for my exercise ![]() Edited by smol on 19-01-2025 21:03 |
