8 (7) Middle crossvein obviously infuscated.
8 (10) Thorax dark behindona broad. middle stripe

10 (9) Thorax not dark behind quite up to base of
scutellum. Other parts of wing in addition
to middle crossvein infuscated. Usually
some black hairs on upper part of facial
orbits, but often mainly pale in polystigma.
11 (14) Longer haired species, especially those hairs
on disc of last two abdominal tergites
longer than first joint of hind tarsi.
12 (13) A particularly long-haired species, many
of the hairs on facial orbits considerably
longer than length of antennal style, and
hairs on all tibiae particularly long, many
more than twice as long as tibia is thick.
Abdomen of a somewhatt dingy orange-yellow
colour. Ptero-, steno -and hypoleura with
conspicuously darkened patches. All tibiae
only hairy beneath, with no indications of
