Very nice - another new one for me :) Which features make it soror for you Theo? Is it a synonym of something in the Central European key or is it a southern species?

It is very close to comta (soror = sister !), but the male lacks proclinate orbital setae

Ahh, OK - so is there no way to split the females from L.comta? I will add a comment to my copy of the Central European key next to where L.comta keys out :)
