[Given the Forewing's Lg. the key should not be used, but here it is still usable]
[Progress in the key , Couplets :
1 (1 Bulla) -> 13 (A5) -> 19 (dg > gk) -> 25-5 (L goes : base to M) -> 28 (N<1/2) -> 30 (M complete) ->
31 (base of Tergite 1 without triangular Tooth -> 2th recurrent Vein not strongly sinuate)
--> Genus Aritranis (sensu Townes)]

There are 13 European sp., whose
jonica synonym (according to Taxapad) with
nigripesin

Schmiedeknecht :

sanguinolenta having the Head mainly orange
claviventris ♀, the description of this Author describes correctly our capture, in particular a character which seems specific : the Head is transverse (see dorsal photo)
[However the Author compares the respective Lgs. of Ovipositor & Abdomen, and we do not know if the Lg. of Tergite 1 is included in the Lg. of Abdomen]
Of where the determination
--------
claviventris was not captured in France nor in Italy
