Hello everyone,
I know that this is difficult to determine, especially from a photo, but we can add something more?

Place of discovery: Boscotrecase (Naples) - Vesuvio on 21 December 2008

Ciao Pietro,
then you are directed to L. sericata, I can also translate into Italian Wink

We await the opinion, however, Susan!

Well done Pietro Smile I would say this is a male sericata. A male richardsi would have the eyes almost touching, dark palpi and 2-3 ad on the mid tibia. Sericata is also much more common. I don't think you would get any of the other species with pale basicostas such as occur on the other side of the Med, but I could be wrong.
Susan
