Hi, this looks like an Egle ciliata male to me, but I am not an expert, so it is better to wait for one!
Best regards,
Henrik

Hmm....with long rows of av+pv on hindfemur and general view...I am more thinking about E. rhinotmeta.

On the end of the abdomen, we just can see a small tuft of hairs, pointing a little downwards, wich is typical for E. rhinotmeta (sternite V contain on each side a tuft of 4-5 longer bristels), this in combination with the presence of av on the hindtibia and the long av + pv on hindfemur (with the lenght more than depth of the femur)…………I would say Egle cf. rhinotmeta.
If you had the species collected….I could make it E. rhinotmeta for sure..Smile
