Hello

I'd got it down to 3 species however it's always useful to learn

Lispocephala - 2+3 dc, 0 pra seta, 2 reclinate orbital setae, 2 reclinate orbital setae, 3 stpl setae in an inverted isosceles triangle

as to species

0 ad on tibia 2, a close up of tibia 3 necessary to discount pallipalpis, scutellum with dark spots in the corners basal region that leaves alma and falculata - female


Here's an interesting link -

A close up of the tarsomeres on leg 1 may have the answer - if the above link is falaculata then I am assuming that tarsomere 5 should be completely dark, is this right Stephane?

(the pedicel seems to be pale in both species)
