Based on the genal setae, that seems to be uniserial and relative short. Maybe a crop of the frontal vitta is possible, to see if there are interfrontals ...or not. L. sericea mostly has not. |

Thanks. I find it difficult to interpret things like 'strongly' and 'weakly' setose and 'very short' - and I keep imagining that I can see interfrontals  . As you say, it would be good to see crops of the head shots (and perhaps a lower angle on the genal setae). |
