Caught 24 July 2024 at a spring on the Great Orme, North Wales, a coastal limestone outcrop.

I have tried the keys in Collin's book but can't get to a species, nor match it to any of Collin's illustrations.

As usual I forgot to say the specimen is in alcohol so the colours may differ from in life. |

Subfamily Clinocerinae. Except for one American genus, Hemerodromiinae have swollen fore femora. |

Thank you. I'll go back to Collin and try again. |

Kowarzia bipunctata perhaps

Thanks. Yes, I agree K. bipunctata. It has the comb on the front femora. A section has broken off the penis so that is why that doesn't match the Collin's figure. Though I can't find the V-shaped structure on the inside of the lamella as in Collin's fig. 314c inset. |
