It doesn't look like Leskia to me (not orange enough) - but it could be a Solieria sp.

Well, there are a few photos in the gallery but they are hard to identify in the field and from photos because females are not key-able with much confidence  Under a microscope with a male specimen and you are OK though

It is quite likely that this is the male of S. pacifica. Solieria's are rather similar. Theo |
