Oh yes, this must be Pherbellia. Thank's again.

Possibly, although the wings look a little light. You'll need to relax it and pull out the genitalia to be sure, although I think yours is a female? :(

I ended to griseola by following the Rozkosnys key:
- Mesopleuron at most with several hairs along posterior margin
- Mid frontal stripe short
- Mesopleuron with hairs along posterior margin
- Whitish band along costal margin of wing absent
- Arista plumose but the hairs short
- Fore tibia and femur darkened
- Cross-veins mostly infuscated
There are more details in the key but these are the main ones. I have not seen this species before, so I might be wrong too. These
Pherbellias are sometimens very tricky for me :|
Thank's
Jari
