Date?
When did the adult emerge? It couldn't be the same date as the larva. How long did the pupation last?
I am interested because I found a couple of these and I would try to raise one. How did the ID was arrived at finally?

Hi Beatriz,
I may be able to determine by when the images were taken. That data is attached to my original images but not my re-sized images and they are stored on an external drive in my fireproof safe. I won't retrieve them till I have more time. As for final ID, without sending the actual specimen to a specialist the ID is in limbo. I supposed I should move both sets of images back to tribe.

Fireproof safe
Good idea! I should be doing the same. Ha! But I would save the original and keep another copy handy.

great work
great work Jim. The adult should be identifiable. It is in the tribe Chlamisini; I suspect Chlamisus. If you can get a detail picture of the antenna that would help exclude Exema for certain. I´m not sure how to distinguish between Neochlamisus and Chlamisus

Thanks Rob.
To me it looked identical to the unclassified Chlamisus I had posted previously so I moved it to that page.
