Ohhh, intriguing. It looks so explicit that it seems easy to identify, yet my first attempt failed.

It's getting late here so let's wait a while what others think when they see this. If that also fails, next best step would be to post it in particular FB groups, where there are more experts, with your permission. Posted 5 years ago

  Thank you for your try, It was not easy to find even its family , I checked whole families similar, Cimeliidae was my last but was the correct one! The photo was from my last field trip just couple of days ago Posted 5 years ago, modified 5 years ago
