Condylostylus caudatus. The other northern species with long hairs on the tail has a slightly enlarged hind tarsus. There mid basitarsus should be ornamented with short, curved bristles and I don't see that; I assume the angle is wrong.

Thanks!
I have checked my other pictures, but none of them is sharp enough to show the bristles.
