Looks like a Dorypteryx species. Where was it found?

As it was indoors, I'd say almost certainly Dorypteryx, but which country are you in? Remember that there are several species of Dorypteryx, some with more reduced venation. Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

In many species, the venation of Psocoptera is variable. You may need to use other characters to establish the identity of this specimen. (We've reached the limit of my knowledge of this group! )
