Sminthurinus elegans
Hi Jim. Finally managed to idy the species...

 
Thank you, Frans.
I can see now that this is just a dark version of my lighter-colored specimen.

 
Reminder to move the images
Hi Jim. I tried to do it myself but apparently I cannot move your images. I guess this is a safety thing. A contributor to the guide can only move his/her own images I guess.

 
Thanks, Frans.
I must be a little dense :-)

Moved
Moved from Sminthurididae.

Katiannidae
Hi Jim. Pls move these images to genus Sminthurinus in the family Katiannidae.

 
Thanks for prodding, Frans.
I don't know why I didn't move it earlier. Just an oversight.

Sminthurinus is in family Katiannidae
Hi Jim, pls note that the family of Sminthurinus is not Sminthurididae but Katiannidae.

Possibly Sminthurinus
Hi Jim. Note that the dark eyes actually are positioned at the outside of these white patches.

 
Yes, I see them.
Thanks.
