Maybe a Metalimnobia. Do you have any tibia and tarsal pictures? |

yes, it is Metalimnobia. Perhaps tenua, but this is not an identification! M. tenua is very similar to M. 4-notata; the best differences are in male hypopygium, especially in parameres (hypopygium should be KOH cleared if one wishes to have good identification). tenua is usually lighter colored than 4-notata, almost as light as bifasciata. -Jukka Salmela |
