Gorgeous species! Note that I saw your species creation request, yet it is at the genus level, which is not specific enough for species creation. Posted 9 years ago

  Thanks, fchristant.
  Does that means if I only know the species up to Genus level, I should not make a species request?
  And just put the genus ID in the description? Posted 9 years ago

I would say almost impossible to get a species identification at this nymph stage. There are 4 species of Nisitrus crickets in Borneo. All of them look almost similar to each other. That's the problem with insect identification, you cannot really be sure until you have a specimen with you. Posted 5 years ago
