Yes, it is a couple of Gymnosoma and they look awfully weird !!!

Might even be G. rungsi.


So start collecting, then we can tell you more !

The head dusting is incredibly pale and uniform, with very few bristles - definitely one for the net :)

A female supposedly rungsi in my collection (with no other IDer than myself, so for what it is worth) has the same striking golden frons.

So this really might be rungsi.
