It reminds me of some Solieria, but the head is out of focus, so we can't see the bristles there, alas... Theo |

Yes, I agree - also would be nice to see the scutellum for those 2 pairs of scutellar bristles.  |

Well, I still go for Solieria. It's a male with long tarsal claws, so no pacifica. Given the width of vertex, this leaves either fenestrata or vacua. Somehow, it doesn't look much like fenestrata. .... Theo |
