Pinalitus rubricatus (Fallén), female
Moved from Pinalitus. Very tentatively ID'd from specimen, now a photo-voucher. Thanks Tom.

Kelton (1977) relied heavily on the length of the rostrum in his key to species. The rostrum is an in-between size in this specimen, but I think the slightly smaller body size and a rostral length on the lower size end points more to P. rubricatus (over P. approximatus).
