Nearly impossible to say with just that picture but... I thought the copula is closer to Machimus pilipes instead of Neoepitriptus . Aren't the tibiae of the male too hairy for Neoepitriptus??  However, I also thought the female and the male of the first pictures were Neoepitriptus  Two species really in the whole lot to me

Engel mentions long white hair for femora and tibiae (when ventral bristles are lacking on f1) I wonder sometimes if he actually describes two species under the name inconstans.... : ))) Maybe one day we will understand...

Thanks for your reply, Reinoud! I see your point fully Honestly, the more I read the less I understand  But this is why I like them; no fun if it is too easy  |
