Hej Theo
Do you mean Linnaemya vulpina. Can't find anything about the name you wrote.

I write Linnaemyia, as I have explained before, because science is about correcting mistakes and not cultivating them, as the Code does. I know the taxonomic police hunts on criminals like me, but Linnaemya simply hurts my brain.
Vulpina was a typo, indeed.
