It is a male Muscina, and given the frontal vitta between the eyes, it should be M. stabulans (the legs seems dark, but it is probably a trick of the photo).

I find it difficult to see the differents between M.prolapsa and M.stabulans, but is the thoracic calypter not to narrow for a M.stabulans..? And R4+5 to narrow..?? Only curious.....Joke  |

I find it difficult to see the differents between M.prolapsa and M.stabulans Of course, it isn't difficult when the legs are visible. The lower calypter isn't too much narrow for M. stabulans, it would certainly be for M. pascuorum. Cell r4+5 seems not too much narrow neither. Muscina stabulans is the most probable one since other males of the genus have fronto-orbital plates touching. Stephane. |
