It Could Be Lactura subfervens or Lactura psammitis or both....
...depending on the taxonomic arrangement one follows. Richard Brown shows all his specimens from the region under L. subfervens, following an author who apparently did not recognize L. psammitis as a distinct species. But the Hodges Checklist and All-Leps Barcoding (whose list is followed here at BG.N) still show/recognize two species. So now the real question is which of the two species is it. I do not have an answer at present. It needs to come from someone with a good series of well-curated collection specimens. It is possible that the two species can only be distinguished by genitalia (which is my supposition for the moment). If that is the case then we should call this Lactura subfervens/psammitis species group.
