The tesselations on the abdomen are very weak for a proposed B. vulgaris, especially a female. T4 has numerous long discal setae which is a better match with B. viarum or stricta. The wing veins appear to be very dark, which also matches better with viarum. I do not have any specimens from this genus, so i cannot say it is B. viarum. I intend to focus more on this genus.
