Moved

Thanks!
Unfortunately, I was not able to retrieve information whether the head of A.erythrocephala males is black throughout, or may be pale in front.

 
Genus level?
Can we move to Acantholyda then?

 
guess that´s safe
. . . cause it does not resemble one of the other present genera nor Cephal*cia (lacking in the guide insofar). But it does not make much of a difference to leaving it on the present place, unless a sawfly expert gives a vote on it.
