Thank you Boris Büche for identifying and Janet Whitington for confirming the id of this species for us General Species Information: Found in the Adelaide Hills and possibly elsewhere ~7 to ~13mm long Females. Boris said "Elytra with three complete ribs (costae), instead of four in Porrostoma, plus a short one near scutellum; costa closest to suture bent outwards in anteriour fourth, giving space for extra interval." | |||||
