Or maybe I don't :( My malaise catches allways more females and unfortenately all the most interesting species are females too. Maybe the trap is just too attracting :D This would be new genus (if it would be Tephrochlamys) but what can man do....) I must go on trying or does it help if I send You this specimen ? Are females possible to determine from genitals ?

The female can be identified if the genital part is dissected !
If you could to send the specimen it will be OK ! ;)
