Why not Mydaea humeralis? I think on 3-d image 3 strong pv on basal half of f2 are visible. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Well, I was torn between setifemur and humeralis !  Your choice seems better. Greetings. Stephane. |

To tell you truth, Stephane, I'm not still sure that our choise of Mydaea instead of some Phaonia-Helina is correct. I'd be happy to get some approval too  Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

At least, it shouldn't be a Phaonia since the pd bristle on t3 is missing (knowing there is one exception - P. latifrontalis). I am now impatient to get the Master's opinion, since I know Mydaea is his favourite genus.
