Hi, a Phaonia, I think - maybe P. tuguriorum (2 acro before scutellum)

Great, thank you!
Is it possible to be more confident? Take a look at this link:

In Phaonia tuguriorum, I would expect a yellow tip of the scutellum and darkened crossveins, I would compare this one with Phaonia angelicae or P. falleni.

Thank you! I think it is Phaonia angelicae, but one step in the Brittish key confuses me: "Head in profile with the mouth edge (between the vibrissal angles) protruding conspicuously in front of the frons." Is it protruding enough in "my" Phaonia?

I agree with Ph. angelicae
