      Definitely similar. Andrej suggested Elysius hampsoni. The two looks quite similar yet I've found a few photos of hampsoni with the vibrant banded legs as seen on the photo, whilst superba seems to have black legs. Not entirely sure how solid that logic is, but going with hampsoni for now if you don't mind. Thanks! Posted 6 years ago
