      Very difficult. I can't rule out Antiblemma perva, but it doesn't look like a full visual match to me, and it's quite out of known range. It's a very large genus, taking your exact pattern into account, this is the closest visual match I can find:

      Given how many undescribed species this genus has, I would not be surprised if yours is undescribed. This is just my amateur opinion.

        I think you are right, could be undescribed. A. prisca is awfully close especially this example:

          I accidentally ID-ed it the wrong way and then came across your other observation, and now I think the accidentally wrong way was the correct one:

            So Antiblemma concinnula or A. prisca? I'm not clear on your post. Posted 3 years ago, modified 3 years ago

                Well, if we're consistent with that earlier observation, then yes :) But I do find them hard to tell apart. Posted 3 years ago
