On second thought, paripes should have a visible tarsal beard. Possibly Glyptotendipes glaucus, which has none. We don't have that species in America and I have not seen it. |

Thank you again for your support and assistance. I edit the title with its proposal.  Unfortunately, I lack training and ability to try to help. Do not know if there may be some other specialist who wants to give us feedback. We will remain pending. Kind regards from southern Spain. José Marín. |
