Thanks for that. So I was in the right part of the book. I'm not sure whether the front legs are "raptorial" but either way it doesn't seem fit anything in Collin. The stigma is wrong for Chelifera. If they are not raptorial, then long dorso-centrals lead to Chamaedipsia but there is no bristle on the front of the fore femora in the apical third and no mention of wing pattern.
