I looked at your specimens and ...
they are not L hirsutoides. It would take dissection and slide preparation to have a chance at identifying to species.

Wow! Where did you find this one?
Sure look like L. hirsutoides that I find on Mesquite here in Hays Co. Do you ever collect specimens? It would be nice to have a close look at this one.

I see several...
...on the outside of my house quite often. I'm not sure if they're all the same species, but I suspect some live in the wood siding and maybe some fall from the trees above. I'll collect the wingless ones I find. Are they ok to be stored/shipped in ethanol?
