Very well spotted !!!
It is the female of Gymnosoma costatum.
Please do collect in alkohol as in the previous case . I love to sample this one for DNA, if you agree. Many thanks !

By the way, you can see very small red lateral patches on the abdomen, also indicating this really is Gymnosoma and not Cistogaster.
