This one puzzles me. First impression is Blepharomyia pagana, but the dark hiindmargins on tergites are lacking. These are lacking in B. angustifrons, which has a much narrower frons..... Theo |

Thank you theo, I'd never seen Blepharomyia. On this post https://diptera.i...pid=131087 the dark hindmargins are more or less visible according to the angle of view (less visible on the photo 1 on dorsal vue than on photo 3 and 4). Don't you think it could be the same on my pictures: little or not visible on photos 1 and 2 in dorsal view, and more visible on photos 3 and 4 (maybe because I've taken the photos with flash) ?

The more common arrangement in Dexiinae is 3 pairs with apicals long and crossed. |

So, apical scutellar bristles are lacking ?? That would suggest Pelatachina tibialis. Theo |

I see four pairs of strong scutellars, all divergent. Also, T1+2 with hardly any excavation and possibly with median discals. |

Thanks Theo and John, and why not a male of Cleonice callida ? It looks like this one https://diptera.i...d_id=85479 and I've seen some Chrysomela populi at the same place. Christine Christine Devillers attached the following image:  [273.49Kb] |

This crossed my mind several times. and it makes total sense, if the crossed apical scutellars are really lacking ! I totally misjudged this, apparently, I thought I saw small crossed apicals. Pretty rare species ! Theo |

Thanks Theo, I don’t see crossed apical scutellars. Only strong apical divergent, and also strong sub-apical, lateral and basal scutellars. Here are some crops of the scutellar bristles. Are the anotations correct ? Christine Christine Devillers attached the following image:  [241.33Kb] |
