Material examined.

Paratype: SERBIA: 1 female, Hym.Typ.No. 4611, Mus.Budapest ( HNHM) .

Comments.

This species clearly does not belong in Trissolcus and we place it in Phanuromyia Dodd sensu Taekul et al. (2013) based on the rugulose sculpture throughout T2 and the apparently 4-merous antennal clava. We were unable to assess the characters of the ventral frons, but given our confidence in transferring this species to Phanuromyia , we did not find it necessary to attempt dissolving the surrounding glue.
