Thanks,
Michael

I'll have to pass on this - there's not really enough visible from this one angle and it doesn't have any really distinctive features that would suggest one of the easy species Smile If you have photos taken from more angles then it might help but I think this would really need a specimen to go anywhere Wink

No ... I would just be guessing - not enough for me to be sure, sorry Smile
