Photographed this darkly coloured Lauxanid (I think) in Stilbay, South Africa a week ago. Around 4mm in size. Would appreciate confirmation and ideas on furthering the ID please. The focus on the second image is poor but I include it as I thought there might somehow be info in it for the experts. Thanks Philip Flippie attached the following image: [175.75Kb] |

Lauxaniidae. The contrasting pale first tarsomere of the fore leg may be distinctive. |
