Hi, is it possible to identify the species of this Dohrniphora? In Iberia we have D. cornuta and D. papuana. According to the key in Liu (2015) this should be D. cornuta, but I'd like to hear other opinions. The spinules at the base of hind femur seem a little different from the ones on the picture in that paper.

Thank you Paul, I'll consider this D. cornuta unless someone says otherwise. :)
