Unique specimen, shaking the twigs of a deciduous Quercus, at an altitude of 900 m. Length 2.5 mm.
Initially, at the field, I thought it was a Scraptia, without a significant interest. But when I saw the palps at the microscope, the truth was obvious.
Unfortunately, I never found it again.
So, Trotommidea sp.
But the exact identification to species level, remains unresolved.
From Greece is mentioned only 1 species (Trotommidea corcyrea Pic, 1901) from Corfu island.
