Thanks Chris

This is really useful information, interestingly it doesn't mention the shoe size!

Looking at your photo, it's a male and the tibia of leg 2 is well seen if we include the metatarsus/tibia junction there are 3 strong bristles on the antero-dorsal side of the tibia (the rest I'm assuming come under hairs)- is this right? with nigrita there would only be 2

Very suble differences between the 2 species so thanks again for the sending

Elis
