okay. Thanks Tony. :)

I tried to find keys and ended up finding a pdf from Drake 2006 and i found a document about noctua group from Dr. Ozerov. Incidentally, i tried to key it by photo using Drake and i end up at S. cribrata. The notes mention 3-4 strong dc but i only see two. Yet the abdomen is strongly dusted and the wings clearly have a pattern, so cribrata is where i end up. I will examine the specimen and post some photos. I believe that i have a male, so whew! :)

I shall return when i have microscopic material.
