Thanks Dysmachus. Neoitamus was my guess too, so that's good.

André – OK, but I'm not sure how much further it gets us. You can see the sharply bent forward hairs on the back of the head though. It has a very red beard, but that doesn't seem to be diagnostic of anything in particular. You can also see the leg colour quite well.

The specimen was collected on a hot but squally day, and was wet. I didn't get a chance to dry him out properly, so the result is he has grown a rather woolly coat of mould. Would an alcohol bath help do you think?
