I am getting nowhere in the key with this one, allthough it seems very characteristic with the line frontals going nearly up to the ocellar triangle en rows of spined on mid femur (Leuven, Belgium, 15-08-2004). Any ideas ? Thanks, Joris

This is a male Fannia, that's why you can't find anything suitable. I think you should find Fannia posticata.

Ah, that explains it. I didn't find the venation (anal veins) terribly Fannia-like, but now you mention it, it did have an exactly dorsal bristle on the hind tibia ... Thanks again ! Joris
