Atylotus,
You're right: it's not subdivided. If that's necessary for Ochtera, it won't be that genus. On the other hand those 'stigmadragers' have a long base (not like in the drawing of Scatella pupa in KGV Smith) and it has some nice 'handshaped' spiracles. Looks a bit like in Scatella silacea (drawing larva KGV Smith). thanks for your help Ton
