This seems to be a pretty common species but I can't nail it in Phaonia in the key. Wrong genus maybe? Other pictures available.

Hello Phil,
check for Phaonia angelicae : t2 with 1 or 2 pv, t3 with an additionnal pd in basal third.

Magic, Stephane, it's exactly as you describe. I was confused by the thick indumentum covering the black ground colour of the abdomen.

Phil
