Because of the black frontal vitta, i had doubts....
Could this be Zaphne, Pegoplata, or just Hylemya variata...
If the palpen are not dilated and just relative long and small, it is H.variata!

Hi Joke
The palps are long and thin, black with tip slightly paler.

Could not be Pegoplata (there are 3 pd on hindtibia)..
And Zaphne also not (has large crossveins very bent)
:D
So H.variata...it is!
