Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Miltogramminae (Phrosinella nasuta?) - Greece

Hi,

In April I collected this female Miltogramminae from a park in Athens, Greece. I think that it may be Phrosinella nasuta, as most characters seem to match with the description of the species and the female sex. The only one I was unable to confirm is the presence of bristles up to the r-m crossvein on r4+5 (they exist, but only at the base of it). What do you believe?

Thanks!

Looks good, at least at genus level. .Do you have a close-up of the fore tarsus ?
