Thanks,

Thanks Erikas. With some imagination (post-sutural dorso-centrals are not very clear) I can key it out to S. pauciseta too. I assume it is impossible to tell if it is male or female?

Tegula looks like black and tip of hind femur is black. Second aristal segment nearly as long as second antennal segment (it is the male).
