Orthopodomyia pulcripalpis (F)

Orthopodomyia pulcripalpis (Rondani, 1872)
Type-loc: Italy

Orthopodomyia genus is represented by only one species in the coverage area of this identification key. Female can be distinguished from 4th tarsal segment being shorter than 5th but this isn’t the case for the males. Distinctive pattern on the scutum and white scale patch on the basal part of the wing allows to identify this species very easily.
