After doing some research, it seemed to me that the female Macquartia tenebricosa species was a possibility. What is your opinion on the matter ? Thank you in advance. Dominique |

Hello Dominique, I think M. tenebricosa is correct and it's probably a fresh female (it's frons is not fully sclerotized yet).
